demandimport: support keyword arguments on _hgextimport __import__ supports keyword arguments since Python 2.5. This proxy should too. An upcoming patch will use this feature.

demandimport: refactor logic and add documentation demandimport doesn't currently support absolute imports (level >= 0). In preparation for this, we add some documentation and a code branch to handle the absolute_import case.

demandimport: add __future__ to ignore list __future__ is special. We should definitely not be trying to lazy load it.

demandimport: remove support for Python < 2.5 The removed code was to support an __import__ function that doesn't support the "level" argument. This argument was added in Python 2.5, which we no longer support.

dispatch: use absolute_import A mixed, ambiguous import has been removed!

commands: break import cycle This was the easiest link in the chain to break as there was only one use of commandserver in commands.py. Other files had multiple users.

cmdutil: break import cycle This was the easiest place to break the chain, as there were only 2 uses of the imported module in the file.

revset: make balanced addsets by orset() without using _combinesets() As scmutil.revrange() was rewritten to not use _combinesets(), we no longer need _combinesets().

revrange: evaluate all revset specs at once This provides an opportunity for revset to optimize given expressions. For example, "-r0 -r1 -r2" can be optimized to "_list(0 1 2)".

revset: add matchany() to construct OR expression from a list of specs This will allow us to optimize "-rREV1 -rREV2 ..." command-line options.
