config: add a function to insert non-file based, but overridable settings...
config: add a function to insert non-file based, but overridable settings This will be used in the next patch. Until relatively recently (473510bf0575), there was no official way for extensions to inject per-repo config data, so it probably makes sense that `ui.setconfig()` items are sticky, and not affected by loading more config files. But that makes it cumbersome if the extension wants to allow the data it might add to be overridden by any data in the local hgrc file. The only thing I could get to work was to load the local hgrc first, and then check if the source for the config item that should be overridden was *not* the local hgrc file name. But that's brittle because in addition to the file name, the source contains the line number, there are the usual '\' vs '/' platform differences, etc. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7933

 r44031 The censor system allows retroactively removing content from
files. Actually censoring a node requires using the censor extension,
but the functionality for handling censored nodes is partially in core.
Censored nodes in a filelog have the flag ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` set,
and the contents of the censored node are replaced with a censor
tombstone. For historical reasons, the tombstone is packed in the
filelog metadata field ``censored``. This allows censored nodes to be
(mostly) safely transmitted through old formats like changegroup
versions 1 and 2. When using changegroup formats older than 3, the
receiver is required to re-add the ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` flag when
storing the revision. This depends on the ``censored`` metadata key
never being used for anything other than censoring revisions, which is
true as of January 2017. Note that the revlog flag is the
authoritative marker of a censored node: the tombstone should only be
consulted when looking for a reason a node was censored or when revlog
flags are unavailable as mentioned above.
The tombstone data is a free-form string. It's expected that users of
censor will want to record the reason for censoring a node in the
tombstone. Censored nodes must be able to fit in the size of the
content being censored.
