-/// `rust/hg-cpython/src/dirstate/dirstate_map.rs` implements in Rust a
-/// `DirstateMap` Python class that wraps `Box<dyn DirstateMapMethods + Send>`,
-/// a trait object of this trait. Except for constructors, this trait defines
-/// all APIs that the class needs to interact with its inner dirstate map.
-///
-/// A trait object is used to support two different concrete types:
-///
-/// * `rust/hg-core/src/dirstate/dirstate_map.rs` defines the "flat dirstate
-///   map" which is based on a few large `HgPath`-keyed `HashMap` and `HashSet`
-///   fields.
-/// * `rust/hg-core/src/dirstate_tree/dirstate_map.rs` defines the "tree
-///   dirstate map" based on a tree data struture with nodes for directories
-///   containing child nodes for their files and sub-directories. This tree
-///   enables a more efficient algorithm for `hg status`, but its details are
-///   abstracted in this trait.
-///
-/// The dirstate map associates paths of files in the working directory to
-/// various information about the state of those files.
