rebase: add test case that shows that inmemory rebase does not preserve merges Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8727

rebase: remove now unnecessary logic to allow empty commit when branch changes This was a workaround for a bug in the empty commit check in repo.commit(), where the parent branch name was incorrectly compared with the wdir branch name instead of the branch name passed via `extra`. The bug was fixed in D8724. The workaround was introduced in b2415e94b2f5. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8725

commit: check branch change on to-be-committed changeset This makes a difference when a branch name is passed via the `extra` argument, which will be used as the branch name for the created changeset. The empty commit check should use that branch name instead of whatever was set on the working directory. Besides fixing the bug for which a test case was extended, it enables to remove a workaround in the rebase extension, which will be done in a follow-up patch (D8725).

procutil: move comment closer to relevant code

procutil: use mercurial.windows.winstdout only on Python 2 and TTYs Python 3 already works around the bug. The workaround is only needed when writing to consoles. If stdout is a console, sys.stdout.isatty() is true.

procutil: split if condition This prepares the code for subsequent changes where we need to differentiate between the two cases.

procutil: explain better why line buffering is not possible The sentence “On Python 3, buffered binary streams can't be set line-buffered.” was imprecise, as all streams are just Python classes and we can implement our own (which we did).

tests: make subprocess handling reusable for different tests in test-stdio.py

procutil: back out 8403cc54bc83 (make ....procutil.stderr unbuffered) Changeset 8403cc54bc83 introduced code that opens a second file object referring to the stderr file descriptor. This broke tests on Windows. The reason is that on Windows, sys.stderr is buffered and procutil.stderr closed the file descriptor when it got garbage collected before sys.stderr had the chance to flush buffered data. `procutil.stdout` had the same problem for a long time, but we didn’t realize, as in CI test runs, stdout is not a TTY and in this case no second file object is opened.

test-clone-uncompressed: use config to silence the lock warning The ui.timeout.warn option can solve the issue6237 in a cleaner way than what was done in 752da6863e39. That way, possible other unexpected error output will not be silenced. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8726

hooklib: fix detection of successors for changeset_obsoleted Provide a hook for obsutil.getobsolete to be used with either a transaction or the changes item of the transaction, since hooks only have access to the latter. Use that to find the correct list of revisions with obsmarkers, even new ones, and then filter out revisions with known successors. Move the processing from pretxnclose to txnclose as the transaction access itself is no longer necessary. This is more in line with notify and ensures that sanity checks can abort the transaction first. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8575

fix: prefetch file contents This prevents the worker subprocesses from contacting the server individually, which is either inefficient, or leads to problems if the connection is shared among them. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8723

fix: obtain base paths before starting workers This moves calculation of base paths to before work is dispatched. While this does mean that copy tracing will be serialized instead of parallel, it is necessary to be able to prefetch the base contents in a batch, which will likely be more efficient.

scmutil: allowing different files to be prefetched per revision The old API takes a list of revision separate from the file matcher, and thus provides no way to fetch different sets of files from each revision. In preparation for adding one such usage, I'm changing the API to take a list of (revision, file matcher) tuples instead. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8721

tests: update test-devel-warnings.t output with chg

tests: make names in test-stdio.py more distinctive This way, more tests can be added without name clashes.

tests: terminate subprocess in test-stdio.py in case of exception If an error happened while reading the output of the subprocess, the pipe / TTY buffer can fill up and prevent that the subprocess ends. Therefore we should terminate the subprocess in case of an exception.

tests: proof test-stdio.py against buffer fill-up With the previous code, it could in theory happen that the pipe / PTY buffer of the child stdout / stderr fills up and the process never finishes. To prevent that, we read all of the stream before waiting for the end of the process. To ensure that the stream reaches EOF when the child finishes, we must close the parent "copy" of the child stdout / stderr.

tests: stablize test-serve.t on Windows I forget the reason that the subprocess on Windows doesn't print this, but all other instances of this are similarly conditionalized, so I didn't think too hard about it. Also, the server needs to be killed so it doesn't prevent the next run from working, especially since the port isn't randomized. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8720

commitctx: document the manifest writing function Same spirit as for `_filecommit` lets document the input and output before making any change or improvement. This is part of a larger refactoring/cleanup of the commitctx code to clarify and augment the logic gathering metadata useful for copy tracing. The current code is a tad too long and entangled to make such update easy. We start with easy and small cleanup. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8705

commitctx: reorder some conditional for efficiency in _filecommit Checking if a dict is empty will be faster than comparing text. I don't expect it to be a huge performance win, but still a good (but gratuitous) cleanup to do while we are at it. This is part of a larger refactoring/cleanup of the commitctx code to clarify and augment the logic gathering metadata useful for copy tracing. The current code is a tad too long and entangled to make such update easy. We start with easy and small cleanup. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8701

commitctx: document _filecommit input and output This is the beginning of a larger refactoring/cleanup of the commitctx code to clarify and augment the logic gathering metadata useful for copy tracing.

clonebundles: optional memory-requirement attribution The new REQUIREDRAM option allows a client to skip bundles it isn't expected to handle well, e.g. without swapping. This allows a fallback path to be provided e.g. using zstd level 10 instead of 22. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8645

util: provide a helper function to estimate RAM size For POSIX systems, it uses sysconf. For Windows, it uses the win32 API directly. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8644

tests: allow timing difference in output Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8676

documentation: add some internals documentation about bid merge This is an important algorithm that was only documented on the wiki so far. Some update to the algorithm (and associated doc) is to expected in the future since the bid merge algorithm is bug-ridden when it comes to file deletion comes to play.

cmdserver: document message-encodings and channel output options While writing the previous patch, I noticed these options are undocumented. In my testing, a separate status/error message channel works well in GUI frontend as we no longer have to sort out data and message from mixed outputs. So let's mark it as not experimental.

cmdserver: add option to not exit from message loop on SIGINT Sending SIGINT to server is the only way to interrupt a command running in command-server process. SIGINT will be caught at dispatch.dispatch() if we're lucky. Otherwise it will terminate the serer process. This is fundamentally unreliable as signals are delivered asynchronously. "cmdserver.shutdown-on-interrupt=False" mitigate the issue by making the server basically block SIGINT.
