status: move the boundary comparison logic within the timestamp module Some extensions will need it too. So lets isolate the logic. It also makes things clearer. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11799

tests: remove potential mtime ambiguity in a dirstate test If the test was fast enough, some mtime where not stored. We now wait long enough to ensure the mtime is no longer ambiguous. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11798

dirstate: cleanup remaining of "now" during write Since the whole `need_delay` have been removed, we no longer need this. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11797

dirstate: remove need_delay logic Now that all¹ stored mtime are non ambiguous, we no longer need to apply the `need_delay` step. The need delay logic was not great are mtime gathered during longer operation could be ambiguous but younger than the `dirstate.write` call time. So, we don't need that logic anymore and can drop it This make the code much simpler. The code related to the test extension faking the dirstate write is now obsolete and associated test will be migrated as follow up. They currently do not break. [1] except the ones from `hg update`, but `need_delay` no longer help for them either. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11796

dirstate: remove `lastnormaltime` mechanism This is now redundant with the new, simpler `mtime_boundary` one. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11795

status: use filesystem time boundary to invalidate racy mtime We record the filesystem time at the start of the status walk and use that as a boundary to detect files that might be modified during (or right after) the status run without the mtime allowing that edition to be detected. We currently do this at a second precision. In a later patch, we will use nanosecond precision when available. To cope with "broken" time on the file system where file could be in the future, we also keep mtime for file over one day in the future. See inline comment for details. Large file tests get a bit more confused as we reduce the odds for race condition. As a "side effect", the win32text extension is happy again.

test: use a different timestamp for the updated file In the test we want to trigger a write after the underlying dirstate changed. To do so, we need a write. And as we are about to make dirstate update smarter we need to meddle with the script a bit to make sure there will be a write. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11793

win32text: drop associated dirstate cache information on revert Otherwise the could get size from one version of the file while the on-disk version is still clean but with another size. This fix the previously introduced error. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11792

dirstate: stop gathering parentfiledata in update_file Gathering information here assume that they are valid cache information for a clean file. It is true most of the time, but not garanteed. Accurate data can still be explicitly provided. We drop the spontaneous and will let the next `hg status` call record actual information. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11791

dirstate: stop gathering parentfiledata in update_file_p1 Gathering information here assume that they are valid cache information for a clean file. It is true most of the time, but not garanteed.
