revlog: avoid possible collision between directory and temporary index Since 6.4, we create a temporary index file to write the split data without overwriting the inline version too early. However, the store encoding does not prevent these new `.i.s` file to collide with a directory with the same name. While the odds for such a collision to happens are fairly low, the collision would prevent Mercurial from working. The store encoding have a mitigation solution in place to prevent such collisions from happening for `.i` and `.d` files, but not for other extensions. We cannot update this encoding scheme to solve the issue since it would diverge from older version of Mercurial. Instead, we create an alternative directory tree dedicated to such files. The use of the `.i` extension combined with store encoding will prevent collisions there.

Mercurial

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool for software developers.

Basic install:

$ make            # see install targets
$ make install    # do a system-wide install
$ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
$ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

$ make local      # build for inplace usage
$ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.

Notes for packagers

Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported configuration.
