sshpeer: initial definition and implementation of new SSH protocol...
sshpeer: initial definition and implementation of new SSH protocol The existing SSH protocol has several design flaws. Future commits will elaborate on these flaws as new features are introduced to combat these flaws. For now, hopefully you can take me for my word that a ground up rewrite of the SSH protocol is needed. This commit lays the foundation for a new SSH protocol by defining a mechanism to upgrade the SSH transport channel away from the default (version 1) protocol to something modern (which we'll call "version 2" for now). This upgrade process is detailed in the internals documentation for the wire protocol. The gist of it is the client sends a request line preceding the "hello" command/line which basically says "I'm requesting an upgrade: here's what I support." If the server recognizes that line, it processes the upgrade request and the transport channel is switched to use the new version of the protocol. If not, it sends an empty response, which is how all Mercurial SSH servers from the beginning of time reacted to unknown commands. The upgrade request is effectively ignored and the client continues to use the existing version of the protocol as if nothing happened. The new version of the SSH protocol is completely identical to version 1 aside from the upgrade dance and the bytes that follow. The immediate bytes that follow the protocol switch are defined to be a length framed "capabilities: " line containing the remote's advertised capabilities. In reality, this looks very similar to what the "hello" response would look like. But it will evolve quickly. The methodology by which the protocol will evolve is important. I'm not going to introduce the new protocol all at once. That would likely lead to endless bike shedding and forward progress would stall. Instead, I intend to tricle out new features and diversions from the existing protocol in small, incremental changes. To support the gradual evolution of the protocol, the on-the-wire advertised protocol name contains an "exp" to denote "experimental" and a 4 digit field to capture the sub-version of the protocol. Whenever we make a BC change to the wire protocol, we can increment this version and lock out all older clients because it will appear as a completely different protocol version. This means we can incur as many breaking changes as we want. We don't have to commit to supporting any one feature or idea for a long period of time. We can even evolve the handshake mechanism, because that is defined as being an implementation detail of the negotiated protocol version! Hopefully this lowers the barrier to accepting changes to the protocol and for experimenting with "radical" ideas during its development. In core, sshpeer received most of the attention. We haven't even implemented the server bits for the new protocol in core yet. Instead, we add very primitive support to our test server, mainly just to exercise the added code paths in sshpeer.

====================================
Testing head checking code: Case D-3
====================================
Mercurial checks for the introduction of new heads on push. Evolution comes
into play to detect if existing branches on the server are being replaced by
some of the new one we push.
This case is part of a series of tests checking this behavior.
Category D: remote head is "obs-affected" locally, but result is not part of the push
TestCase 3: multi-changeset branch, split on multiple new others, only one of them is pushed
.. old-state:
..
.. * 2 changesets branch
..
.. new-state:
..
.. * 2 new branches, each superseding one changeset in the old one.
..
.. expected-result:
..
.. * pushing only one of the resulting branch (either of them)
.. * push denied

Actual testing
--------------
$ hg push --rev 'desc(A1)'
pushing to $TESTTMP/D3/server
searching for changes
abort: push creates new remote head f6082bc4ffef!
(merge or see 'hg help push' for details about pushing new heads)
[255]
$ hg push --rev 'desc(B1)'
pushing to $TESTTMP/D3/server
searching for changes
abort: push creates new remote head 25c56d33e4c4!
(merge or see 'hg help push' for details about pushing new heads)

Extra testing
-------------
In this case, even a bare push is creating more heads
$ hg push
pushing to $TESTTMP/D3/server
searching for changes
abort: push creates new remote head 25c56d33e4c4!
(merge or see 'hg help push' for details about pushing new heads)
