compression: introduce an official `format.revlog-compression` option This option supersedes the `experiment.format.compression` option. The value currently supported are zlib (default) and zstd (if Mercurial was compiled with zstd support). The option gained an explicit reference to `revlog` since this is the target usage here. Different storage methods might require different compression strategies. In our tests, using zstd give a significant CPU usage improvement (both compression and decompressing) while keeping similar repository size. Zstd as other interresting mode (dictionnary, pre-text, etc…) that are probably worth exploring. However, just plain switching from zlib to zstd provide a large benefit.

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.
