patch.trydiff: add support for stripping a relative root
This assumes that if relroot is not None, all the files in modified, added and
removed start with it. In upcoming patches we'll follow that.
subrepo: add basic support to hgsubrepo for the files command
Paths into the subrepo are not yet supported.
The need to use the workingctx in the subrepo will likely be used more in the
future, with the proposed working directory revset symbol. It is also needed
with archive, if that code is to be reused to support 'extdiff -S'.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem possible to put the smarts in subrepo.subrepo(),
as it breaks various status and diff tests.
I opted not to pass the desired revision into the subrepo method explicitly,
because the only ones that do pass an explicit revision are methods like status
and diff, which actually operate on two contexts- the subrepo state and the
explicitly passed revision.
mergecopies: reuse ancestry context when traversing file history (
issue4537)
Merge copies is traversing file history in search for copies and renames.
Since 3.3 we are doing "linkrev adjustment" to ensure duplicated filelog entry
does not confuse the traversal. This "linkrev adjustment" involved ancestry
testing and walking in the changeset graph. If we do such walk in the changesets
graph for each file, we end up with a 'O(<changesets>x<files>)' complexity
that create massive issue. For examples, grafting a changeset in Mozilla's repo
moved from 6 seconds to more than 3 minutes.
There is a mechanism to reuse such ancestors computation between all files. But
it has to be manually set up in situation were it make sense to take such
shortcut. This changesets set this mechanism up and bring back the graph time
from 3 minutes to 8 seconds.
To do so, we need a bigger control on the way 'filectx' are instantiated during
each 'checkcopies' calls that 'mergecopies' is doing. We add a new 'setupctx'
that configure and return a 'filectx' factory. The function make sure the
ancestry context is properly created and the factory make sure it is properly
installed on returned 'filectx'.
adjustlinkrev: handle 'None' value as source
When the source rev value is 'None', the ctx is a working context. We
cannot compute the ancestors from there so we directly skip to its
parents. This will be necessary to allow 'None' value for
'_descendantrev' itself necessary to make all contexts used in
'mergecopies' reuse the same '_ancestrycontext'.
adjustlinkrev: prepare source revs for ancestry only once
We'll need some more complex initialisation to handle workingfilectx
case. We do this small change in a different patch for clarity.
