localrepo: use changelog.hasnode instead of self.__contains__ Before this patch, releasing the store lock implies the actions below, when the transaction is aborted: 1. "commithook()" scheduled in "localrepository.commit()" is invoked 2. "changectx.__init__()" is invoked via "self.__contains__()" 3. specified ID is examined against "repo.dirstate.p1()" 4. validation function is invoked in "dirstate.p1()" In subsequent patches, "dirstate.invalidate()" invocations for discarding changes are replaced with "dirstateguard", but discarding changes by "dirstateguard" is executed after releasing the store lock: resources are acquired in "wlock => dirstateguard => store lock" order, and are released in reverse order. This may cause that "dirstate.p1()" still refers to the changeset to be rolled-back at (4) above: pushing multiple patches by "hg qpush" is a typical case. When releasing the store lock, such changesets are: - not contained in "repo.changelog", if it is reloaded from ".hg/00changelog.i", as that file was already truncated by "transaction.abort()" - still contained in it, otherwise (this "dirty read" problem is discussed in "Transaction Plan" http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/TransactionPlan) Validation function shows "unknown working parent" warning in the former case, but reloading "repo.changelog" depends on the timestamp of ".hg/00changelog.i". This causes occasional test failures. In the case of scheduled "commithook()", it just wants to examine whether "node ID" of committed changeset is still valid or not. Other examinations implied in "changectx.__init__()" are meaningless. To avoid showing the "unknown working parent" warning irregularly, this patch uses "changelog.hasnode()" instead of "node in self" to examine existence of committed changeset.

Mercurial's default format for showing changes between two versions of
a file is compatible with the unified format of GNU diff, which can be
used by GNU patch and many other standard tools.
While this standard format is often enough, it does not encode the
following information:
- executable status and other permission bits
- copy or rename information
- changes in binary files
- creation or deletion of empty files
Mercurial also supports the extended diff format from the git VCS
which addresses these limitations. The git diff format is not produced
by default because a few widespread tools still do not understand this
format.
This means that when generating diffs from a Mercurial repository
(e.g. with :hg:`export`), you should be careful about things like file
copies and renames or other things mentioned above, because when
applying a standard diff to a different repository, this extra
information is lost. Mercurial's internal operations (like push and
pull) are not affected by this, because they use an internal binary
format for communicating changes.
To make Mercurial produce the git extended diff format, use the --git
option available for many commands, or set 'git = True' in the [diff]
section of your configuration file. You do not need to set this option
when importing diffs in this format or using them in the mq extension.
