delta-search: fix crash caused by unbound variable This code path was apparently not tested. This fixes a crash when cloning the Tryton repo.

branching: merge stable into default

Added signature for changeset c9ceb4f60256

Added tag 6.7 for changeset c9ceb4f60256

phases: avoid N² behavior in `advanceboundary` We allowed duplicated entries in the deque, which each entry could potentially insert all its ancestors. So advancing boundary for the full repository would mean each revision would walk all its ancestors, resulting in O(N²) iteration. For repository of any decent size, N² is quickly insane. We introduce a simple set to avoid this and get back to reasonable performance.

relnotes: add 6.7

admin-commands: move the chainsaw extension to the admin commands module Activating an extension is always a little bit of a chore and the long name, options and "chainsaw" bits are deterrent enough. This also allows us to help the discoverability for people looking for repo "administration" tools, with the widest semantic of "administration".

obsutil: sort metadata before comparing in geteffectflag() This is probably less important now that we dropped Python 2. We do still support Python 3.6 though, and the dictionaries aren't ordered there either (that was a big change that came with 3.7). Still, maybe it's a good idea to sort metadata explicitly.

tests: disable revlog compression in test-generaldelta.t (issue6867) The revlog compression makes a lot of numbers unstable. Since checking revlog compression is not the goal of this test, we disable the compression to get stable numbers. This should avoid wasting more time on this kind of changes in the future.

test-general-delta: actually test optimize-delta-parent-choice=no Since the configuration was not explicit, the case stopped testing what it intended to test when the default value changed.

test-chg: stabilize the log checking The "worker process exited" line have been making the CI flaky for a long time. Lets sort this out.

tests: fix test-patchbomb-tls.t instability The flakiness on chg is caused by a client that exit faster than the server output log. So actively wait for the server to issue the expected output (with a small timeout)

test-lock: use synchronisation file instead of sleep This will prevent the test to be flaky on load.

branchcache: use update_disk to refresh 'served' and 'served.hidden' The `update_disk` method is dedicated to this kind of usecase. Now that the writting patterns are more consistent, we can use it to warm these two important cache. I am dropping the first comment about "refreshing all the others" because it is false. If a branchmap already exist for "served", none of the subset will be updated.

branchcache: explictly update disk state only if no transaction exist If a transaction exist the `write_dirty` call will eventually be done and the state will be synched on disk. It is better to no interfer with that.

branchcache: do not use `__getitem__` in updatecache The `update_disk` method uses `updatecache` and the point of `update_disk` is to be able to do alternative processing to the one we do in `__getitem__`. So we calling `__getitem__` in `updatecache` defeat this purpose. Instead we do the equivalent explicitly to preserve the spirit of `update_disk` (that we will actually put to use soon, I promise)

branchcache: explicitly track inheritence "state" We move from a binary "dirty" flag to a three value "state": "clean", "inherited", "dirty". The "inherited" means that the branch cache is not only "clean", but it is a duplicate of its parent filter. If a branch cache is "inherited", we can non only skip writing its value on disk, but it is a good idea to delete any stale value on disk, as those will just waste time (and possibly induce bug) in the future. We only do this in the update related to transaction or explicit cache update (e.g `hg debugupdatecache`). Deleting the file when we simply detected a stall cache during a read only operation seems more dangerous. We rename `copy` to `inherit_for` to clarify we associate a stronger semantic to the operation.

branchcache: stop writing more branchcache file on disk than needed Before this change, we were unconditionally writing a branchmap file for the filter level passed to `update_disk`. This is actually counter productive if no update were needed for this filter level. In many case, the branch cache for a filter level is identical to its parent "subset" and it is better to simply keep the subset update and reuse it every time instead of having to do identical work for similar subset. So we change the `update_disk` method to only write a file when that filter level differ from its parent. This removes many cases where identical files were written, requiring multiple boring update in the test suite. The only notable changes is the change to `test-strip-branch-cache.t`, this case was checking a scenario that no longer reproduce the bug as writing less branchmap file result in less stalled cache on disk. Strictly speaking, we could create a more convoluted scenario that create a similar issue. However the next changeset would also cover that scenario so we directly updated that test case to a "no longer buggy" state.

branchcache: do not copy the `_dirty` flag If the inherited branch cache is dirty, it will be written on disk, and the super-set did not need to modify it, the on disk value for the subset will be re-useable as is. So the super set does not needs to write the very same content itself.

branchcache: explicitly assert that copy is always about inheritance This would catch cases where copy is used for something else if any existed.

branchcache: stop using `copy(…)` in `replace(…)` The `copy` method is mostly used for a filter level to inherit the branchmap from a subset. So we stop using (abusing) it in "replace" to ensure `copy` is used only for inheritance purposes. Since `replace` is a method of the BranchMapCache, it seems fine to do lower level operation there.

branchcache: change the _delayed flag to an explicit `_dirty` flag This is more consistent with the logic we use for other object and it open the way to a clearer management of the cache state. Now, cache are created clean, cache update mark them dirty, writing them on disk mark them clean again.

branchcache: write branchmap in subset inheritance order This way, we can guarantee a valid subset has been written before touching the branchmap of another filter. This is especially useful as we are bout to start deleting outdated branchmap file.

branchcache: do not accept "empty update" This currently does not happens and it will be simpler that is remains that way. If all update do something, we will be able to simply declare, in a later changesets, that all update to result in a dirty branchcache.
