ui: add configoverride context manager I feel like this idea might've been discussed before, so please feel free to point me to the right mailing list entry to read about why it should not be done. We have a common pattern of the following code: backup = ui.backupconfig(section, name) try: ui.setconfig(section, name, temporaryvalue, source) do_something() finally: ui.restoreconfig(backup) IMO, this looks better: with ui.configoverride({(section, name): temporaryvalue}, source): do_something() Especially this becomes more convenient when one has to backup multiple config values before doing something. In such case, adding a new value to backup requires codemod in three places.

archival: simplify code and drop message about Python 2.5

bugzilla: stop mentioning Pythons older than 2.6 We don't support those anyway.

tests: update sitecustomize to use uuid1() instead of randrange() The comments mention that uuid would be better, so let's go ahead and make good on an old idea.

win32mbcs: drop code that was catering to Python 2.3 and earlier

httppeer: drop an except block that says it happens only on Python 2.3

windows: do not replace sys.stdout by winstdout Now we use util.stdout everywhere.

py3: bulk replace sys.stdin/out/err by util's Almost all sys.stdin/out/err in hgext/ and mercurial/ are replaced by util's. There are a few exceptions: - lsprof.py and statprof.py are untouched since they are a kind of vendor code and they never import mercurial modules right now. - ui._readline() needs to replace sys.stdin and stdout to pass them to raw_input(). We'll need another workaround here.

py3: provide bytes stdin/out/err through util module Since standard streams are TextIO on Python 3, we can't use sys.stdin/out/err directly. Fortunately we can get the underlying BytesIO via .buffer as long as the streams aren't replaced by e.g. StringIO. stdin/out/err are provided through util so we can wrap them by platform API.

util: rewrite pycompat imports to make pyflakes always happy I'll add more imports which would confuse pyflakes.

windows: do not replace sys.__stdout__ Now we don't use sys.__stdout__ except for getting its fileno(), so we no longer have to wrap it by winstdout. This helps adding pycompat.stdin/out/err.

py3: update test-check-py3-compat.t output This part remains unchanged because it runs in Python 3 only.
