hgweb: only include graph-related data in jsdata variable on /graph pages (BC)
Historically, client-side graph code was not only rendering the graph itself,
but it was also adding all of the changeset information to the page as well.
It meant that JavaScript code needed to construct valid HTML as a string
(although proper escaping was done server-side). It wasn't too clunky, even
though it meant that a lot of server-side things were duplicated client-side
for no good reason, but the worst thing about it was the data format it used.
It was somewhat future-proof, but not human-friendly, because it was just a
tuple: it was possible to append things to it (as was done in e.g.
270f57d35525), but you'd then have to remember the indices and reading the
resulting JS code wasn't easy, because cur[8] is not descriptive at all.
So what would need to happen for graph to have more features, such as more
changeset information or a different vertex style (branch-closing, obsolete)?
First you'd need to take some property, process it (e.g. escape and pass
through templatefilters function, and mind the encoding too), append it to
jsdata and remember its index, then go add nearly identical JavaScript code to
4 different hgweb themes that use jsdata to render HTML, and finally try and
forget how brittle it all felt. Oh yeah, and the indices go to double digits if
we add 2 more items, say phase and obsolescence, and there are more to come.
Rendering vertex in a different style would need another property (say,
character "o", "_", or "x"), except if you want to be backwards-compatible, it
would need to go after tags and bookmarks, and that just doesn't feel right.
So here I'm trying to fix both the duplication of code and the data format:
- changesets will be rendered by hgweb templates the same way as changelog and
other such pages, so jsdata won't need any information that's not needed for
rendering the graph itself
- jsdata will be a dict, or an Object in JS, which is a lot nicer to humans and
is a lot more future-proof in the long run, because it doesn't use numeric
indices
What about hgweb themes? Obviously, this will break all hgweb themes that
render graph in JavaScript, including 3rd-party custom ones. But this will also
reduce the size of client-side code and make it more uniform, so that it can be
shared across hgweb themes, further reducing its size. The next few patches
demonstrate that it's not hard to adapt a theme to these changes. And in a
later series, I'm planning to move duplicate JS code from */graph.tmpl to
mercurial.js and leave only 4 lines of code embedded in those <script>
elements, and even that would be just to allow redefining graph.vertex
function. So adapting a custom 3rd-party theme to these changes would mean:
- creating or copying graphnode.tmpl and adding it to the map file (if a theme
doesn't already use __base__)
- modifying one line in graph.tmpl and simply removing the bigger part of
JavaScript code from there
Making these changes in this patch and not updating every hgweb theme that uses
jsdata at the same time is a bit of a cheat to make this series more
manageable: /graph pages that use jsdata are broken by this patch, but since
there are no tests that would detect this, bisect works fine; and themes are
updated separately, in the next 4 patches of this series to ease reviewing.
tests: write and use a custom helper script to avoid find's -printf
-printf on find is a GNU-ism and will be banned in an upcoming
check-code change.

hgweb: adopt child nodes in ajaxScrollInit on /graph pages too
ajaxScrollInit is a function that loads more elements (e.g. changelog entries)
when browser window is scrolled down to the bottom of the page. It basically
fetches the next page from the server as HTML, finds container element in that
document and "adopts" (essentially, moves) all its child nodes to the container
in the current document.
Currently, hgweb doesn't render any changesets on /graph page (everything is
done in JavaScript), so there are no children to adopt. But there will be soon,
so let's create a reusable function that does it.
Hardcoding #graphnodes selector is suboptimal, but graph code already does this
in two other places.
lfs: enable the extension locally after converting to an 'lfs' repo
This is consistent with clone and share in the previous commits.
lfs: enable the extension locally after sharing a repo with 'lfs' requirement
This is consistent with clone in the previous commit.
lfs: enable the extension locally after cloning a repo with 'lfs' requirement
We do the same thing on clone for the largefiles extension, as a convenience.
Similar to largefiles, it's probably safer to only enable this extension on a
per repo basis because it is trivial to add an lfs file. And that gives the
repository some centralized VCS characteristics.
log: translate column labels at once (
issue5750)
This makes sure that all columns are aligned. getlogcolumns() is hosted by
templatekw so the namespaces module can see it.
i18n/de.po is updated so test-log.t passes with no error. "obsolete:" and
"instability:" are kept untranslated.
lock: allow to configure when the lock messages are displayed
We add a new 'ui.timeout.warn' config to set a grace period before we display
lock related warning:
waiting for lock on PATH held by PROCESS
The config is based on 'ui.timeout' and expresses a number of seconds before
the warning is displayed. Negative values disable the warning altogether.
The messages go to the debug output to help people trouble-shooting deadlocks.
