pycompat: update comment about unnamedtempfile I found the comment clearer. I end up having to think about this for `TemporaryFile` and I update that one in the process. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D9210

revset: add diff(pattern) predicate for "grep --diff" I find this is useful in GUI log viewer since the tool only needs to support "log -rREV" command. This is basic implementation. Windowed search is not implemented since it wouldn't work pretty well with the smartset API. And filename matcher is not supported because the syntax isn't determined. My idea is to add handling of diff(pattern, file(..)) and diff(pattern, follow(..)), which will then be evolved to a full revset+matcher combinator support: x & diff(pattern, y & z) ===== y & z builds (revs(y) & revs(z), matcher(y) & matcher(z)) pair, and narrows the search space of diff() ==================== diff() returns matched (revs, matcher) pair ======================== revs and matcher will be combined respectively by &-operator, and the matcher will optionally be used to filter "hg log -p" output The predicate name "diff()" wouldn't be great, but grep() is already used. Another options I can think of are "grepdiff()" and "containsdiff()". Naming suggestions are welcome.

stringutil: add function to compile stringmatcher pattern into regexp Prepares for adding a revset predicate for "grep --diff". The grep logic needs a regexp object instead of a match function.

py3: fix stringmatcher() to byte-stringify exception message Spotted while writing regexp variant of stringmatcher().

stringutil: extract helper function that splits stringmatcher() pattern

grep: extract main search loop as searcher method Still displayer part is in commands.grep(), the core grep logic is now reusable. I'll revisit the displayer stuff later since it will be another long series.

scmutil: move walkchangerevs() from cmdutil It's no longer a command-level function, but a pure helper to walk revisions in a windowed way. This change will help eliminate reverse dependency of revset.py -> grep.py -> cmdutil.py in future patches.

grep: extract public function to register file to be skipped The main grep loop will be extracted to a searcher method, but this skipping condition depends on the result of display() function.
