== Default Format Change ==
These changes affect newly created repositories (or new clones) done with
Mercurial 6.3.
== New Experimental Features ==
== Bug Fixes ==
* shelve: demonstrate that the state is different across platforms (issue6735)
* shelve: in test for trailing whitespace, strip commit (issue6735)
* shelve: remove strip and rely on prior state (issue6735)
* tests: fix http-bad-server expected errors for python 3.10 (issue6643)
* status: let `--no-copies` override `ui.statuscopies`
* releasenotes: use re.MULTILINE mode when checking admonitions
== Backwards Compatibility Changes ==
* chg worker processes will now correctly load per-repository configuration
when given a both a relative `--repository` path and an alternate working
directory via `--cwd`. A side-effect of this change is that these workers
will now return an error if hg cannot find the current working directory,
even when a different directory is specified via `--cwd`.
* phase: rename the requirement for internal-phase from `internal-phase` to `use-internal-phase` (see 74fb1842f8b962cf03d7cd5b841dbcf2ae065587)
== Internal API Changes ==
== Miscellaneous ==
* sslutil: use proper attribute to select python 3.7+
* typing: suppress a few pyi-errors with more recent pytype
* ci: bump pytype to 2022.03.29
* bundlespec: add documentation about existing option
* subrepo: avoid opening console window for non-native subrepos on Windows
* setup: unconditionally enable the `long-paths-support` option on Windows
* setup: use the full executable manifest from `python.exe`
* tests: work around libmagic bug in svn subrepo tests
* packagelib: use python3 by default
* Improve `hg bisect` performance
* perf: properly process formatter option in perf::unbundle
* compare-disco: miscellaneous display improvements
* fsmonitor: better compatibility with newer Pythons
* revlog: finer computation of "issnapshot"
* rhg: don't fallback if `strip` or `rebase` are activated
* perf: make perf::bundle compatible before 61ba04693d65
* perf: make perf::bundle compatible down to 5.2
* run-tests: display the time it took to install Mercurial
* mergetools: don't let meld open all changed files on startup
* dirstate-v2: skip evaluation of hgignore regex on cached directories
