histedit: read state from histeditstate Read the state in histeditstate. This allows us to correctly update internal variables when necessary without having to recreate a new state. When we read a state in _histedit state while we will already have state passed from histedit(), we can read the state in place and don't have to merge two histeditstates.

histedit: pass state to action functions

histedit: pass state to processreplacement

histedit: pass state to boostrapcontinue Pass the state to boostrapcontinue and remove the unecessary passing of repo.

histedit: let the state expose a context but serialize correctly to nodes The histedit code often expects a context. However histedit hands around the tuple for the serialization and therefore hand over a parentctxnode. This leads to code having to return a context based on the parentctxnode. We let the state only return a context but correctly serialize and deserialze to a node.

histedit: add clear method to remove state Encapsulate the unlinking histedit-state and use the vfs layer instead of os.unlink.

histedit: use state object where necessary We are using the properties from the state object where necessary and ensure that the state is set correctly.
