split: new extension to split changesets This diff introduces an experimental split extension to split changesets. The implementation is largely inspired by Laurent Charignon's implementation for mutable-history (changeset 9603aa1ecdfd54b0d86e262318a72e0a2ffeb6cc [1]) This version contains various improvements: - Rebase by default. This is more friendly for new users. Split won't lead to merge conflicts so a rebase won't give the user more trouble. This has been on by default at Facebook for months now and seems to be a good UX improvement. The rebase skips obsoleted or orphaned changesets, which can avoid issues like allowdivergence, merge conflicts, etc. This is more flexible because the user can decide what to do next (see the last test case in test-split.t) - Remove "Done split? [y/n]" prompt. That could be detected by checking `repo.status()` instead. - Works with obsstore disabled. Without obsstore, split uses strip to clean up old nodes, and it can even handle split a non-head changeset with "allowunstable" disabled, since it runs a rebase to solve the "unstable" issue in a same transaction. - More friendly editor text. Put what has been already split into the editor text so users won't lost track about where they are.

The censor system allows retroactively removing content from
files. Actually censoring a node requires using the censor extension,
but the functionality for handling censored nodes is partially in core.
Censored nodes in a filelog have the flag ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` set,
and the contents of the censored node are replaced with a censor
tombstone. For historical reasons, the tombstone is packed in the
filelog metadata field ``censored``. This allows censored nodes to be
(mostly) safely transmitted through old formats like changegroup
versions 1 and 2. When using changegroup formats older than 3, the
receiver is required to re-add the ``REVIDX_ISCENSORED`` flag when
storing the revision. This depends on the ``censored`` metadata key
never being used for anything other than censoring revisions, which is
true as of January 2017. Note that the revlog flag is the
authoritative marker of a censored node: the tombstone should only be
consulted when looking for a reason a node was censored or when revlog
flags are unavailable as mentioned above.
The tombstone data is a free-form string. It's expected that users of
censor will want to record the reason for censoring a node in the
tombstone. Censored nodes must be able to fit in the size of the
content being censored.
