compare-disco: add an option to skip the case If we already know the context, we can save a lot of display space by skipping the case. This also open the way to speedup to the way we specify the subsets. (the code is hacky, but this is a quicky and dirty debug script)

compare-disco: display a header by default This help us to understand the output. (the code is hacky, but this is a quicky and dirty debug script)

compare-disco: prepare for primitive argument parsing We need to be able to configure a couple of things, so lets prepare the code for it. (the code is hacky, but this is a quicky and dirty debug script)

tests: improve portability by no longer using the flag [tar --force-local] A different way of making sure the path is not interpreted as a URL is to never give this path to [tar], instead making tar read from stdin.

phase-shelve: correct unicode string to honor 'shelve.store=internal' In the case of strip-based shelves, there should be no hidden commit found. That's because shelve.store=internal is necessary but not sufficient to enable phase-based shelves; internal-phase must also be set.

status: include `repo` in template context also for resolved paths The `repo` object needs to be in the templater context when using e.g. `relpath`. It has been missing there since it was the unresolved files were added to the templated output in 07ebb567e8bb.

shelve: remove strip and rely on prior state (issue6735)

shelve: in test for trailing whitespace, strip commit (issue6735)

shelve: demonstrate that the state is different across platforms (issue6735)

phase: rename the requirement for internal-phase (BC) The previous requirements covers both `internal` and `archived` phase. However, the `archived` phase is not ready for usage (while the internal one is mostly ready for years). So we split the archived on in a dedicated requirements (see previous changeset for details) and rename the one for internal-phase. This will avoid older client trying to use the archived phase on `internal` only repositories. Since the requirements stayed experimental since its introduction. It seems fine to drop the previous version.

phase: introduce a dedicated requirement for the `archived` phase See inline documentation for details.

phase: introduce a dedicated function to check for the archived phase The internal-phase is "ready to use" since its introduce. However, some question remains around the `archived` phase. So it seem safer to move them to separated configuration and requirements. This changeset is a first of a small series doing this.

rebase: add boolean config item rebase.store-source This allows to use rebase without recording a rebase_source extra field. This is useful for example to build a mirror converted from another SCM (such as svn) by converting only new revisions, and then incrementally add them to the destination by pulling from the newly converted (unrelated) repo and rebasing the new revisions onto the last old already stored changeset. Without this patch the rebased changesets would always receive some rebase_source that would depend on the particular history of the conversion process, instead of only depending on the original source revisions. This is used to implement a hg mirror repo of SvarDOS (a partially nonfree but completely redistributable DOS distribution) in the scripts at https://hg.pushbx.org/ecm/svardos.scr/ In particular, cre.sh creates an svn mirror, upd.sh recreates an entire hg repo from the svn mirror (which takes too long to do in a regular job), and akt.sh uses hg convert with the config item convert.svn.startrev to incrementally convert only the two most recent revisions already found in the mirror destination plus any possible new revisions. If any are found, the temporary repo's changesets are pulled into the destination (as changesets from an unrelated repository). Then the changesets corresponding to the new revisions are rebased onto the prior final changeset. (Finally, the two remaining duplicates of the prior head and its parent are stripped from the destination repository.) Without this patch, the particular rebase_source extra field would depend on the order and times at which akt.sh was used, instead of only depending on the source repository. In other words, whatever sequence of upd.sh and akt.sh is used at whatever times, it is desired that the final output repositories always match each other exactly.

tests: remove flakiness in a time-dependent test

sort-revset: introduce a `random` variant This new `sort` variant allows to shuffle any revset. It also allow for randomly picking element using `first`.

tests: remove flakiness in test-nointerrupt.t The problem was that the reaction to the signal was racing against the completion of the command. Since reaction to the signal is to print a line of warning, we can fix this by waiting for that warning to appear before allowing the command to complete.

perf: properly process formatter option in perf::unbundle Otherwise, the options are not understood.

perf: quiet stdout output in perf::unbundle There a lot of repetitive bundle application message we do not care about.

perf: quiet stderr output in perf::unbundle There a lot of repetitive transaction message we do not care about.

bisect: avoid adding irrelevant revisions to bisect state When adding new revisions to the bisect state, it only makes sense to add information about revisions that are under consideration (i.e., those that are topologically between the known good and bad revisions). However, if the user passes in a revset (e.g., '!merge()' to exclude merge commits), hg will resolve the revset first and add all matching revisions to the bisect state (which in this case would likely be the majority of revisions in the repo). To avoid this, revisions should only be added to the bisect state if they are between the good and bad revisions (and therefore relevant to the bisection). -- Here are the results of some performance tests using the `mozilla-central` repo (since it is one of the largest freely-available hg repositories in the wild). These tests compare the performance of a locally-built `hg` before and after application of this series. Note that `--noupdate` is passed to avoid including update time (which should not vary across cases). Setup (run between each test): $ hg bisect --reset $ hg bisect --noupdate --bad 56c3ad4bde5c70714b784ccf15d099e0df0f5bde $ hg bisect --noupdate --good 57426696adaf08298af3027fa77486fee0633b13 Test using a revset that returns a very large number of revisions: $ time hg bisect --noupdate --skip '!merge()' > /dev/null Before: real 0m9.398s user 0m9.233s sys 0m0.120s After: real 0m1.513s user 0m1.425s sys 0m0.052s Test using a revset that is expensive to compute: $ time hg bisect --noupdate --skip 'desc("Bug")' > /dev/null Before: real 0m49.853s user 0m49.580s sys 0m0.243s After: real 0m4.120s user 0m4.036s sys 0m0.048s

bisect: limit ancestors to revs topologically between good and bad revs Previously, when constructing its dict of revisions to their ancestors, bisect would populate the dict with ALL of the descendents of the good set, which is a bit silly because it is impossible for a revision that is a descendent of the minimum known bad revision to be the first bad rev. Instead it makes more sense to limit the revisions to just those topologically between the good and bad.

bisect: bypass changectx when translating revs to nodes When resolving the revset given by the user into node hashes, use the changelog to perform the translation rather than the repo object. This avoids the overhead of constructing a changectx which is immediately discarded.

rhg: make [rhg status -v] work when it needs no extra output Add support for verbose [status] when no extra output is actually needed. This makes it so that [rhg status] is actually useful when [tweakdefaults] is true. (since tweakdefaults implies verbose status)

perf: introduce a benchmark for delta-find That part is responsible of serious slowdown in some `hg pull/unbundle` case. So lets add a way to benchmark it.

automation: set PATH when building on Windows Sometime in the 6.2 release cycle the Windows building automation broke. Building the wheel and even PyOxidizer based installers now fails with: ``` Exception: PowerShell execution failed: error: subprocess-exited-with-error Getting requirements to build wheel did not run successfully. exit code: 1 [1 lines of output] Unable to find a working hg binary to extract the version from the repository tags [end of output] note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip. ``` I have a hunch this is a regression from upgrading pip in 1c00777702da, but I haven't verified this. It may not be, as PyOxidizer has its own bundled Python/pip. So maybe it is something in `setup.py`.

contrib: update Mercurial install in bootstrap environment

automation: transition to Windows Server 2022 Let's keep our Windows build environment modern by upgrading to the latest OS. As part of the upgrade, we pick up a migration to EC2Launch Version 2. This has a different config mechanism. So we need to port how we manage the administrator password. As part of migrating to the new YAML/JSON config file mechanism, we move the code to the powershell script that is run when the instance first launches. This ensures that the config is retained during the reboot we perform as part of building the Windows AMI. The motivation for this is I'm currently unable to build the Windows 2019 AMI due to an issue installing OpenSSH. This _just works_ on Windows Server 2022. I have no clue what the root cause is. I think it might have something to do with Microsoft not publishing the files in the right location. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12630

automation: refresh requirements I'm hitting errors installing the old version of cffi due to an apparent issue where older versions of cffi aren't compatible with the modern Clang I'm using. So let's upgrade packages to unbreak things and to keep things modern. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12629
