py3: make scmutil.rcpath() return bytes This patch make sure scmutil.rcpath() returns bytes independent of which platform is used on Python 3. If we want to change type for windows we can just conditionalize the return variable.

py3: use pycompat.ossep at certain places Certain instances of os.sep has been converted to pycompat.ossep where it was sure to use bytes only. There are more such instances which needs some more attention and will get surely.

py3: have pycompat.ospathsep and pycompat.ossep We needed bytes version of os.sep and os.pathsep in py3 as they return unicodes.

py3: add a bytes version of os.name os.name returns unicodes on py3. Most of our checks are like os.name == 'nt' Because of the transformer, on the right hand side we have b'nt'. The condition will never satisfy even if os.name returns 'nt' as that will be an unicode. We either need to encode every occurence of os.name or have a new variable which is much cleaner. Now we have pycompat.osname. There are around 53 occurences of os.name in the codebase which needs to be replaced by pycompat.osname to support Python 3.

py3: make util.datapath a bytes variable In this patch we make util.datapath a bytes variable, but we have to pass a unicode to gettext.translation otherwise it will cry. Used pycompat.fsdecode() to decode it back to unicode as it was converted to bytes using pycompat.fsencode().

py3: add os.fsdecode() as pycompat.fsdecode() We need to use os.fsdecode() but this was not present in Python 2. So added the function in pycompat.py

statprof: return state from stop() I don't like global variables. Have stop() return the captured state so callers can pass data to the display function.

hgweb: cache fctx.parents() in annotate command (issue5414) 9c37df347485 introduced a call to fctx.parents() for each line in annotate output. This function call isn't cheap, as it requires linkrev adjustment. Since multiple lines in annotate output tend to belong to the same file revision, a cache of fctx.parents() lookups for each input should be effective in the common case. So we implement one. Since the cache has to precompute parents so an aborted generator doesn't leave an incomplete cache, we could just return a list. However, we preserve the generator for backwards compatibility. The effect of this change when requesting /annotate/96ca0ecdcfa/ browser/locales/en-US/chrome/browser/downloads/downloads.dtd on the mozilla-aurora repo is significant: p1(9c37df347485) 5.5s 9c37df347485: 66.3s this patch: 10.8s We're still slower than before. But only by ~2x instead of ~12x. On the tip revisions of layout/base/nsCSSFrameConstructor.cpp file in the mozilla-unified repo, time went from 12.5s to 14.5s and back to 12.5s. I'm not sure why the mozilla-aurora repo is so slow. Looking at the code of basefilectx.parents(), there is room for further improvements. Notably, we still perform redundant calls to filelog.renamed() and basefilectx._parentfilectx(). And basefilectx.annotate() also makes similar calls, so there is potential for object reuse. However, introducing caches here are not appropriate for the stable branch.
