contrib: log the command and args for every process installing windows deps This is a little noisier, but makes it simple to debug when things fail. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11272

windows-ci: run Windows CI automatically alongside the others This will enable us to make Windows Python 3 a first-class citizen for the next 6.0 cycle. We will probably get some flaky tests and we're missing others that are skipped, but we'll turn them on it future patches. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11256

vfs: always use / as file separator (issue6546) Various part of vfs already enforce `/` usage and using `\` confuse the encoded vfs. So we simply use `/` all the time. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11260

subrepo: compare normalised vfs path Otherwise the realpath call can turn `/` into `\` on windows confusing the check. (We probably needs this in more location) Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11259

pager: account for flakiness in Windows output This test case is cursed and probably not worth losing more time over. This makes apparent what the intended behavior is while still removing the flakiness from the CI. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11257

windows-ci: clean up the Heptapod CI file now that the baseline is solid Enough work has been done one the CI side, this now works with little effort on our side. The next patch will remove the manual switch. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11254

test-nointerrupt: make "sure" the handler "might" trigger (issue6558) We are sure that the signal got sent in the right time frame, however, we still have race, so either the code is actually buggy or we need some security to make sure the signal get processed. We might be affected by https://bugs.python.org/issue43406 ? Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11251

testing: make sure write_file is "atomic" This make sure viewer cannot see the new file with partial content. This was likely the cause of some flakiness in `test-nointerrupt.t` Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11250

test: disable test-subrepo-git.t in python2 + chg I am a couple of days in try to debug that at it seems minor enough with enough other priority to simply disable it for now. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11253

hgwebdir: avoid systematic full garbage collection Forcing a systematic full garbage collection upon each request can serioulsy harm performance. This is reported as https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6075 With this change we're performing the full collection according to a new setting, `experimental.web.full-garbage-collection-rate`. The default value is 1, which doesn't change the behavior and will allow us to test on real use cases. If the value is 0, no full garbage collection occurs. Regardless of the value of the setting, a partial garbage collection still occurs upon each request (not attempting to collect objects from the oldest generation). This should be enough to take care of reference cycles that have been created by the last request (assessment of this requires changing the setting, not to be 1). In my experience chasing memory leaks in Mercurial servers, the full collection never reclaimed any memory, but this is with Python 3 and biased towards small repositories. On the other hand, as explained in the Python developer docs [1], frequent full collections are very harmful in terms of performance if lots of objects survive the collection, and hence stay in the oldest generation. Note that `gc.collect()` is indeed trying to collect the oldest generation [2]. This happens usually in two cases: - unwanted lingering objects (i.e., an actual memory leak that the GC cannot do anything about). Sadly, we have lots of those these days. - desireable long-term objects, typically in caches (not inner caches carried by repositories, which should be collected with them). This is a subject of interest for the Heptapod project. In short, the flat rate that this change still permits is probably a bad idea in most cases, and the default value can be tweaked later on (or even be set to 0) according to experiments in the wild. The test is inspired from test-hgwebdir-paths.py [1] https://devguide.python.org/garbage_collector/#collecting-the-oldest-generation [2] https://docs.python.org/3/library/gc.html#gc.collect Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11204
