localrepo: create new function for instantiating a local repo object Today, there is a single local repository class - localrepository. Its __init__ is responsible for loading the .hg/requires file and taking different actions depending on what is present. In addition, extensions may define a "reposetup" function that monkeypatches constructed repository instances, often by implementing a derived type and changing the __class__ of the repo instance. Work around alternate storage backends and partial clone has made it clear to me that shoehorning all this logic into __init__ and operating on an existing instance is too convoluted. For example, localrepository assumes revlog storage and swapping in non-revlog storage requires overriding e.g. file() to return something that isn't a revlog. I've authored various patches that either: a) teach various methods (like file()) about different states and taking the appropriate code path at run-time b) create methods/attributes/callables used for instantiating things and populating these in __init__ "a" incurs run-time performance penalties and makes code more complicated since various functions have a bunch of "if storage is X" branches. "b" makes localrepository quickly explode in complexity. My plan for tackling this problem is to make the local repository type more dynamic. Instead of a static localrepository class/type that supports all of the local repository configurations (revlogs vs other, revlogs with ellipsis, revlog v1 versus revlog v2, etc), we'll dynamically construct a type providing the implementations that are needed for the repository on disk, derived from the .hg/requires file and configuration options. The constructed repository type will be specialized and methods won't need to be taught about different implementations nor overloaded. We may also leverage this functionality for building types that don't implement all attributes. For example, the "intents" feature allows commands to declare that they are read only. By dynamically constructing a repository type, we could return a repository instance with no attributes related to mutating the repository. This could include things like a "changelog" property implementation that doesn't check whether it needs to invalidate the hidden revisions set on every access. This commit establishes a function for building a local repository instance. Future commits will start moving functionality from localrepository.__init__ to this function. Then we'll start dynamically changing the returned type depending on options that are present. This change may seem radical. But it should be fully compatible with the reposetup() model - at least for now. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4563

:alt: Code Coverage
This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR)
(`RFC 7049`_) serialization format.
There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C
extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation
also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension
tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing
itself).
