dirstate-v2: Reserve a few bytes of space for future extensions See doc-comment Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11101

dirstate-v2: Separate iterators for dirfoldmap and debugdirstate `dirstatemap.dirfoldmap` was recently changed to re-use a Rust iterator that was added for the `hg debugdirstate` command. That iterator was based on all nodes in the tree dirstate without an entry only existing to hold child nodes, and therefore being directories. However to optimize status further we may want to store additional nodes for unknown or ignored files and directories. At that point the two users of this iterator will want different things, so let’s make two iterators instead. See doc-comments in `dispatch.rs`.

dirstate-v2: Move fixed-size tree metadata into the docket file Before this changeset, the dirstate-v2 data file contained not only nodes and paths that may be reused when appending to an existing file, but also some fixed-size metadata that applies to the entire tree and was added at the end of the data file for every append. This moves that metadata into the docket file, so that repeated "append" operations without meaningful changes don’t actually need to grow any file.

dirstate-v2: Add heuristic for when to create a new data file … instead of appending to the existing one. This is based on keeping track of how much of the existing data is not used anymore. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11097

dirstate-v2: Reuse existing paths when appending to a data file When writing a dirstate in v2 format by appending to an existing data file, filenames / paths that are borrowed from the previous on-disk representation can be reused. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11096

dirstate-v2: Reuse existing nodes when appending to a data file When writing a dirstate in v2 format by appending to an existing data file, nodes that are still "unparsed" from the previous on-disk representation have been unchanged and can therefore be reused. This makes the new data point to previously-existing data for tree nodes. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11095

dirstate-v2: Support appending to the same data file For now we’re still writing the entire data every time, so appending is not useful yet. Later we’ll have new nodes pointing to some existing data for nodes and paths that haven’t changed. The decision whether to append is pseudo-random in order to make tests exercise both code paths. This will be replaced by a heuristic based on the amount of unused existing data. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11094

dirstate-v2: shrink on-disk path lengths to 16-bits Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11091

dirstate-v2: Rename Header to Root, move it to the end of the data file Now that they don’t have to be at the start, a given data file may contain multiple "roots". A docket only points to one of them, and previous ones are left unused to allow allow append-only in-place writing to an existing data file. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11090

dirstate-v2: Enforce data size read from the docket file The data file may not be shorter than its size given by the docket. It may be longer, but additional data is ignored. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11089

dirstate-v2: Introduce a docket file .hg/dirstate now only contains some metadata to point to a separate data file named .hg/dirstate.{}.d with a random hexadecimal identifier. For now every update creates a new data file and removes the old one, but later we’ll (usually) append to an existing file. Separating into two files allows doing the "write to a temporary file then atomically rename into destination" dance with only a small docket file, without always rewriting a lot of data.

dirstate: replace a dead conditional branch with an assert in `update_file` This is a case we never meet, so lets trim it away to simplify the code before more changes. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11128

dirstate-map: do not use `size` to gate copy dropping during remove_file This get us close to moving the block right above withing the DirstateItem object. Doing so will help us getting rid of magic constant at the dirstatemap level. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11127

dirstate: drop a duplicated assert This very case is checked in 3 line above that one. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11126
