inotify: don't fall over just because of a dangling symlink Previously, the inotify server failed to start if .hg/inotify.sock was a symlink that pointed to a non-existent path. This behaviour does not seem to make any sense. Now, if we encounter a broken symlink, we unlink it and continue.

test-inotify: test symlink indirection for unix sockets The inotify code performs a delicate dance to work around the 108-byte limit on unix domain socket path names on Linux. This change sets us up to safely refactor that code without breaking it. (It is redundant with part of test-inotify-issue1208.t, but we will shortly make that test go away.)

test-pathencode: compare current pathencoding implementations We already have two implementations of the pathencoding (C and Python) and this test can perfectly well be used to probabilistically test them instead of just wasting CPU cycles and test time.

rebase: use lazy ancestor membership testing For a repository with over 400,000 commits, rebasing one revision near tip, this avoids one walk up the DAG, speeding the operation up by around 0.8 seconds.

localrepo: use lazy ancestor membership testing For a repository with over 400,000 commits, rebasing one revision near tip, this avoids two treks up the DAG, speeding the operation up by around 1.6 seconds.

ancestor: add lazy membership testing to lazyancestors This also makes the perfancestorset command use lazy membership testing. In a linear repository with over 400,000 commits, without this patch, hg perfancestorset takes 0.80 seconds no matter how far behind we're looking. With this patch, hg perfancestorset -- X takes: Rev X Time -1 0.00s -4000 0.01s -20000 0.04s -80000 0.17s -200000 0.43s -300000 0.69s 0 0.88s Thus, for revisions close to tip, we're up to several orders of magnitude faster. At 0 we're around 10% slower.

revlog: move ancestor generation out to a new class This refactoring is to prepare for implementing lazy membership.
