perf: call _generatechangelog() instead of group() Now that we have a separate function for generating just the changelog bits, the perf command should call it so it gets more accurate behavior. This changes the results of this command on my hg repo significantly: ! wall 1.390502 comb 1.390000 user 1.370000 sys 0.020000 (best of 8) ! wall 1.768750 comb 1.760000 user 1.760000 sys 0.000000 (best of 6) Profiling seems to reveal that ~20% of execution time is spent in progress bar accounting and printing! If we run with progress.disable=true: ! wall 1.639134 comb 1.650000 user 1.630000 sys 0.020000 (best of 7) A nice speedup. But profiling still shows a good chunk of time being spent in progress bar accounting code. The reason is that the progress bar is conditionally enabled via an argument to cgpacker.group(). The previous code in perf.py calling into group() did not enable the progress bar but _generatechangelog() always does. I think it is important for the perf* commands to capture real-world use cases. And this code always runs with an active progress bar. So the regression is acceptable. That being said, terminal printing performance can vary substantially. I don't think perf* commands should test terminal printing unless explicitly desired. So I've disabled progress bar printing in this command.

Mercurial for Windows



Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!




Mercurial is a command-line application. You must run it from
the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a<br /> href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW shell).




Note: the standard http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW
msys startup script uses rxvt which has problems setting up
standard input and output. Running bash directly works
correctly.




For documentation, please visit the <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial web site.
You can also download a free book, <a<br /> href="https://book.mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial: The Definitive
Guide.




By default, Mercurial installs to C:\Program
Files\Mercurial
. The Mercurial command is called
hg.exe.



Testing Mercurial after you've installed it




The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is
to just type the following at the command prompt:




hg



This command should print a useful help message. If it does,
other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.



Configuration notes


Default editor



The default editor for commit messages is 'notepad'. You can set
the EDITOR (or HGEDITOR) environment variable
to specify your preference or set it in mercurial.ini:



[ui]
editor = whatever


Configuring a Merge program



It should be emphasized that Mercurial by itself doesn't attempt
to do a Merge at the file level, neither does it make any
attempt to Resolve the conflicts.




By default, Mercurial will use the merge program defined by the
HGMERGE environment variable, or uses the one defined
in the mercurial.ini file. (see <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/wiki/MergeProgram">MergeProgram
on the Mercurial Wiki for more information)



Reporting problems




Before you report any problems, please consult the <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial web site
and see if your question is already in our list of <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/wiki/FAQ">Frequently
Answered Questions (the "FAQ").




If you cannot find an answer to your question, please feel free
to send mail to the Mercurial mailing list, at <a<br /> href="mailto:mercurial@mercurial-scm.org">mercurial@mercurial-scm.org.
Remember, the more useful information you include in your
report, the easier it will be for us to help you!




If you are IRC-savvy, that's usually the fastest way to get
help. Go to #mercurial on irc.freenode.net.
