tag: move the prohibition of tagging the `null` rev up to the `wdir()` check It makes sense to do these together, and avoid another revision lookup.

branching: merge with default the first part of the fix is there

dirstate: handle missing backup file on restoration This is the stable counter part to e358f6e0e50e. Since 6.4 will stop writing undo.dirstate in some case (actually… at all), a transaction created with 6.4 and recover/rolledback with 6.3 need to work to a certain degreee. This changeset add the necessary bits so that we don't get a traceback from 6..3 in this cases.

tests: remove unnecessary --traceback argument

tag: disallow tagging the working directory It's kinda silly, but a clear error message is better than a stacktrace about subscripting `None` when trying to generate the default commit message. I'm surprised that `.revsingle(..).node()` returns None instead of `nodemod.wdirid`, but now there's a test to catch if this changes.

dirstate: remove the dedicated backup logic When alone, the dirstate can now take care of its commit/rollback pattern itself. When in a transaction, the transaction deal with commit/rollback pattern quite fine. Why did you have a dedicated backup logic?

localrepo: stop doing special dirstate backup at transaction open Since the dirstate writes are already managed by the transaction, we already do a backup of the dirstate when necessary (and even trigger one to keep `hg rollback` happy). We needs some special code to deal with the initial empty checkout, but it is not too complicated. Managing variable filename (as dirstate-v2 uses) at the "journalfile" level, is complex and fragile (which is consistent with the fact these files are not journal…). If we no longer do it, our life is significantly simpler. In some sense, we apply the xkcd-1134¹ solution to our savebackup/restorebackup problem. [1] https://xkcd.com/1134/ (the change to test-hardlink are expect as decreasing the number of duplicated backup drive the hardlink count down)

localrepo: "blindly" do a dirstate backup at the end of the transaction Having the file backup mechanism dealing with file backup as benefit. So lets move closer to that. The fact `hg rollback` even needs this is sad. I hope to have the time to implement one of the alternative soon.
