exchangev2: fetch file revisions...
exchangev2: fetch file revisions Now that the server has an API for fetching file data, we can call into it to fetch file revisions. The implementation is relatively straightforward: we examine the manifests that we fetched and find all new file revisions referenced by them. We build up a mapping from file path to file nodes to manifest node. (The mapping to first manifest node allows us to map back to first changelog node/revision, which is used for the linkrev.) Once that map is built up, we iterate over it in a deterministic manner and fetch and store file data. The code is very similar to manifest fetching. So similar that we could probably extract the common bits into a generic function. With file data retrieval implemented, `hg clone` and `hg pull` are effectively feature complete, at least as far as the completeness of data transfer for essential repository data (changesets, manifests, files, phases, and bookmarks). We're still missing support for obsolescence markers, the hgtags fnodes cache, and the branchmap cache. But these are non-essential for the moment (and will be implemented later). This is a good point to assess the state of exchangev2 in terms of performance. I ran a local `hg clone` for the mozilla-unified repository using both version 1 and version 2 of the wire protocols and exchange methods. This is effectively comparing the performance of the wire protocol overhead and "getbundle" versus domain-specific commands. Wire protocol version 2 doesn't have compression implemented yet. So I tested version 1 with `server.compressionengines=none` to remove compression overhead from the equation. server before: user 220.420+0.000 sys 14.420+0.000 after: user 321.980+0.000 sys 18.990+0.000 client before: real 561.650 secs (user 497.670+0.000 sys 28.160+0.000) after: real 1226.260 secs (user 944.240+0.000 sys 354.150+0.000) We have substantial regressions on both client and server. This is obviously not desirable. I'm aware of some reasons: * Lack of hgtagsfnodes transfer (contributes significant CPU to client). * Lack of branch cache transfer (contributes significant CPU to client). * Little to no profiling / optimization performed on wire protocol version 2 code. * There appears to be a memory leak on the client and that is likely causing swapping on my machine. * Using multiple threads on the client may be counter-productive because Python. * We're not compressing on the server. * We're tracking file nodes on the client via manifest diffing rather than using linkrev shortcuts on the server. I'm pretty confident that most of these issues are addressable. But even if we can't get wire protocol version 2 on performance parity with "getbundle," I still think it is important to have the set of low level data-specific retrieval commands that we have implemented so far. This is because the existence of such commands allows flexibility in how clients access server data. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4491

Repositories contain a file (``.hg/requires``) containing a list of
features/capabilities that are *required* for clients to interface
with the repository. This file has been present in Mercurial since
version 0.9.2 (released December 2006).
One of the first things clients do when opening a repository is read
``.hg/requires`` and verify that all listed requirements are supported,
aborting if not. Requirements are therefore a strong mechanism to
prevent incompatible clients from reading from unknown repository
formats or even corrupting them by writing to them.
Extensions may add requirements. When they do this, clients not running
an extension will be unable to read from repositories.
The following sections describe the requirements defined by the
Mercurial core distribution.
revlogv1
========
When present, revlogs are version 1 (RevlogNG). RevlogNG was introduced
in 2006. The ``revlogv1`` requirement has been enabled by default
since the ``requires`` file was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.2.
If this requirement is not present, version 0 revlogs are assumed.
store
=====
The *store* repository layout should be used.
This requirement has been enabled by default since the ``requires`` file
was introduced in Mercurial 0.9.2.
fncache
=======
The *fncache* repository layout should be used.
The *fncache* layout hash encodes filenames with long paths and
encodes reserved filenames.
This requirement is enabled by default when the *store* requirement is
enabled (which is the default behavior). It was introduced in Mercurial
1.1 (released December 2008).
shared
======
Denotes that the store for a repository is shared from another location
(defined by the ``.hg/sharedpath`` file).
This requirement is set when a repository is created via :hg:`share`.
The requirement was added in Mercurial 1.3 (released July 2009).
relshared
=========
Derivative of ``shared``; the location of the store is relative to the
store of this repository.
This requirement is set when a repository is created via :hg:`share`
using the ``--relative`` option.
The requirement was added in Mercurial 4.2 (released May 2017).
dotencode
=========
The *dotencode* repository layout should be used.
The *dotencode* layout encodes the first period or space in filenames
to prevent issues on OS X and Windows.
This requirement is enabled by default when the *store* requirement
is enabled (which is the default behavior). It was introduced in
Mercurial 1.7 (released November 2010).
parentdelta
===========
Denotes a revlog delta encoding format that was experimental and
replaced by *generaldelta*. It should not be seen in the wild because
it was never enabled by default.
This requirement was added in Mercurial 1.7 and removed in Mercurial
1.9.
generaldelta
============
Revlogs should be created with the *generaldelta* flag enabled. The
generaldelta flag will cause deltas to be encoded against a parent
revision instead of the previous revision in the revlog.
Support for this requirement was added in Mercurial 1.9 (released
July 2011). The requirement was disabled on new repositories by
default until Mercurial 3.7 (released February 2016).
manifestv2
==========
Denotes that version 2 of manifests are being used.
Support for this requirement was added in Mercurial 3.4 (released
May 2015). The new format failed to meet expectations and support
for the format and requirement were removed in Mercurial 4.6
(released May 2018) since the feature never graduated frome experiment
status.
treemanifest
============
Denotes that tree manifests are being used. Tree manifests are
one manifest per directory (as opposed to a single flat manifest).
Support for this requirement was added in Mercurial 3.4 (released
August 2015). The requirement is currently experimental and is
disabled by default.
exp-sparse
==========
The working directory is sparse (only contains a subset of files).
Support for this requirement was added in Mercurial 4.3 (released
August 2017). This requirement and feature are experimental and may
disappear in a future Mercurial release. The requirement will only
be present on repositories that have opted in to a sparse working
directory.
