branchcache: explicitly track inheritence "state"...
branchcache: explicitly track inheritence "state" We move from a binary "dirty" flag to a three value "state": "clean", "inherited", "dirty". The "inherited" means that the branch cache is not only "clean", but it is a duplicate of its parent filter. If a branch cache is "inherited", we can non only skip writing its value on disk, but it is a good idea to delete any stale value on disk, as those will just waste time (and possibly induce bug) in the future. We only do this in the update related to transaction or explicit cache update (e.g `hg debugupdatecache`). Deleting the file when we simply detected a stall cache during a read only operation seems more dangerous. We rename `copy` to `inherit_for` to clarify we associate a stronger semantic to the operation.

cHg
===

A fast client for Mercurial command server running on Unix.

Install:

$ make
$ make install

Usage:

$ chg help # show help of Mercurial
$ alias hg=chg # replace hg command
$ chg --kill-chg-daemon # terminate background server

Environment variables:

Although cHg tries to update environment variables, some of them cannot be
changed after spawning the server. The following variables are specially
handled:

* configuration files are reloaded automatically by default.
* CHGHG or HG specifies the path to the hg executable spawned as the
background command server.

The following variables are available for testing:

* CHGDEBUG enables debug messages.
* CHGSOCKNAME specifies the socket path of the background cmdserver.
* CHGTIMEOUT specifies how many seconds chg will wait before giving up
connecting to a cmdserver. If it is 0, chg will wait forever. Default: 60

Build environment variables:

* HGPATH: the path to the hg executable to call when CHGHG and HG are not set,
instead of "hg"
* HGPATHREL=1: when CHGHG and HG are not set, the hg executable will be ./hg
relative to the chg executable. Only works on linux, falls back to "hg"
otherwise.
