Wed, 21 Nov 2012 00:36:29 +0100 clfilter: introduce an "unfiltered" method on localrepo
Pierre-Yves David <pierre-yves.david@ens-lyon.org> [Wed, 21 Nov 2012 00:36:29 +0100] rev 17993
clfilter: introduce an "unfiltered" method on localrepo This commit is part of the changelog level filtering effort. It returns the main "unfiltered" version of a repo-like object. For localrepo this means the same localrepo object. But this method will be overwritten by the filtered versions of a repository to return the core unfiltered version of the repo. Introducing this simple method first allows later commits to prepare for the use of a filtered version of a repository. A new repo method is added because a lot of users may call it. At the end of this series of commits, about 40 calls exist in core and hgext.

But the content of the --rev option was intended for the remote repo and is irrelevant for the local rebase operation. We expect `hg pull --rebase` to stick with the default behavior here: hg rebase --base . --dest tip(branch(.)) The `rev` option is dropped from the option passed to rebase.

update: allow update to existing branches with invalid names (issue3710) Starting with 361ab1e2086f, users are no longer able to update a working copy to a branch named with a "bad" character (such as ':'). Prior to v2.4, it was possible to create branch names using "bad" characters, so this breaks backwards compatibility. Mercurial must allow users to update to existing branches with bad names. However, it should continue to prevent the creation of new branches with bad names. A test was added to confirm that 'hg update' works as expected. The test uses a bundled repo that was created with an earlier version of Mercurial.
Mon, 19 Nov 2012 16:05:40 -0800 commit: increase perf by building a new addlist instead of editing the old one
Durham Goode <durham@fb.com> [Mon, 19 Nov 2012 16:05:40 -0800] rev 17983
commit: increase perf by building a new addlist instead of editing the old one When commiting to a repo with lots of files (>170000), manifest.py:addlistdelta takes some time because it's editing a large array many times. Changing it to build a new array instead of editing the old one saves around 0.04 seconds on a 1.64 second commit. A 2.5% gain. The gain here is pretty minor, but it was blatantly at the top of the profiler report and the fix is straight forward. I tested it by comparing the arrays produced by the new and old logic while running all of the tests.

Example usage: hg convert -s cvs --config convert.localtimezone=True example-cvs example-hg IMPORTANT: the patch only applies to conversions from cvs or svn. The documentation for the option only appears in those two sections in the convert help text.

Mon, 26 Nov 2012 11:46:51 -0800 ancestor: faster algorithm for difference of ancestor sets
Siddharth Agarwal <sid0@fb.com> [Mon, 26 Nov 2012 11:46:51 -0800] rev 17970
ancestor: faster algorithm for difference of ancestor sets One of the major reasons rebase is slow in large repositories is the computation of the detach set: the set of ancestors of the changesets to rebase not in the destination parent. This is currently done via a revset that does two walks all the way to the root of the DAG. Instead of doing that, to find ancestors of a set <revs> not in another set <common> we walk up the tree in reverse revision number order, maintaining sets of nodes visited from <revs>, <common> or both. For the common case where the sets are close both topologically and in revision number (relative to repository size), this has been found to speed up rebase by around 15-20%. When the nodes are farther apart and the DAG is highly branching, it is harder to say which would win. Here's how long computing the detach set takes in a linear repository with over 400000 changesets, rebasing near tip: Rebasing across 4 changesets Revset method: 2.2s New algorithm: 0.00015s Rebasing across 250 changesets Revset method: 2.2s New algorithm: 0.00069s Rebasing across 10000 changesets Revset method: 2.4s New algorithm: 0.019s

util: make chunkbuffer non-quadratic on Windows The old str-based += collector performed very nicely on Linux, but turns out to be quadratically expensive on Windows, causing chunkbuffer to dominate in profiles. This list-based version has been measured to significantly improve performance with large chunks on Windows, with negligible overall overhead on Linux (though microbenchmarks show it to be about 50% slower). This may increase memory overhead where += didn't behave quadratically. If we want to gather up 1G of data to join, we temporarily have 1G in our list and 1G in our string.

We use the length of the subset to determine if it is the entire repo. There is precedence for this in revset.py:stringset.

Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:49:04 -0800 diff: change how quiet mode supresses diffline
Guillermo Pérez <bisho@fb.com> [Thu, 15 Nov 2012 13:49:04 -0800] rev 17942
diff: change how quiet mode supresses diffline Before, quiet mode produced no diffline header for mercurial as a side effect of not populating "revs". This was a weird side effect, and we will always need revs for git index header that will be added in upcoming patches, so now we just check ui.quiet from diffline directly.
Thu, 15 Nov 2012 12:19:03 -0800 diff: move diffline to patch module
Guillermo Pérez <bisho@fb.com> [Thu, 15 Nov 2012 12:19:03 -0800] rev 17941
diff: move diffline to patch module diffline is not part of diff computation, so it makes more sense to place it with other header generation in patch module. In upcoming patches we will generalize this approach for all headers added in the patch, including the git index header.
Thu, 15 Nov 2012 12:16:08 -0800 diff: unify calls to diffline
Guillermo Pérez <bisho@fb.com> [Thu, 15 Nov 2012 12:16:08 -0800] rev 17940
diff: unify calls to diffline diffline was called from trydiff for binary diffs and from unidiff for text diffs. In this patch we unify those calls into one. diffline is also a header, not part of diff mechanisms, so it makes sense to remove that responsibility from the mdiff module. In upcoming patches we will move diffline to patch module and keep grouping responsibilities.
Tue, 06 Nov 2012 14:04:05 -0800 diff: move b85diff to mdiff module
Guillermo Pérez <bisho at fb.com> [Tue, 06 Nov 2012 14:04:05 -0800] rev 17939
diff: move b85diff to mdiff module b85diff generates a binary diff, so we move this code to mdiff module along with unidiff for text diffs. All diffing mechanisms will be in the same place. In an upcoming patch we will remove the responsibility to print the index header from b85diff and move it back to patch, since it's a patch metadata header, not part of the diff generation.
