strip: add a delayedstrip method that works in a transaction For long, the fact that strip does not work inside a transaction and some code has to work with both obsstore and fallback to strip lead to duplicated code like: with repo.transaction(): .... if obsstore: obsstore.createmarkers(...) if not obsstore: repair.strip(...) Things get more complex when you want to call something which may call strip under the hood. Like you cannot simply write: with repo.transaction(): .... rebasemod.rebase(...) # may call "strip", so this doesn't work But you do want rebase to run inside a same transaction if possible, so the code may look like: with repo.transaction(): .... if obsstore: rebasemod.rebase(...) obsstore.createmarkers(...) if not obsstore: rebasemod.rebase(...) repair.strip(...) That's ugly and error-prone. Ideally it's possible to just write: with repo.transaction(): rebasemod.rebase(...) saferemovenodes(...) This patch is the first step towards that. It adds a "delayedstrip" method to repair.py which maintains a postclose callback in the transaction object.

workingfilectx: add audit() as a wrapper for wvfs.audit()

workingfilectx: add backgroundclose as a kwarg to write() This is necessary because some callers in merge.py pass backgroundclose=True when writing. As with previous changes in this series, this should be a no-op.

merge: change repo.wvfs.setflags calls to a new wctx[f].setflags function As with previous changes in this series, this should be a no-op.

merge: convert repo.wwrite() calls to wctx[f].write() As with the previous patch in this series, workingfilectx.write() is a direct call to repo.wwrite(), so this change should be a no-op.

merge: replace repo.wvfs.unlinkpath() with calls to wctx[f].remove() The code inside workingfilectx.remove() is a straight call to repo.wvfs.unlinkpath, so this should be a no-op.

merge: pass wctx to batchremove and batchget We would like to migrate direct calls of repo.wvfs/wwrite/wread/etc to a call on the relevant workingfilectx, both as a cleanup (to reduce the number of working copy functions on `repo`), and also to facilitate an in-memory merge that doesn't write to the working copy. In order to do that, the first step is to ensure we pass the target wctx around and perform our writes and reads on it. Later, this object might become a memctx.
