zstd: vendor python-zstandard 0.5.0...
zstd: vendor python-zstandard 0.5.0 As the commit message for the previous changeset says, we wish for zstd to be a 1st class citizen in Mercurial. To make that happen, we need to enable Python to talk to the zstd C API. And that requires bindings. This commit vendors a copy of existing Python bindings. Why do we need to vendor? As the commit message of the previous commit says, relying on systems in the wild to have the bindings or zstd present is a losing proposition. By distributing the zstd and bindings with Mercurial, we significantly increase our chances that zstd will work. Since zstd will deliver a better end-user experience by achieving better performance, this benefits our users. Another reason is that the Python bindings still aren't stable and the API is somewhat fluid. While Mercurial could be coded to target multiple versions of the Python bindings, it is safer to bundle an explicit, known working version. The added Python bindings are mostly a fully-featured interface to the zstd C API. They allow one-shot operations, streaming, reading and writing from objects implements the file object protocol, dictionary compression, control over low-level compression parameters, and more. The Python bindings work on Python 2.6, 2.7, and 3.3+ and have been tested on Linux and Windows. There are CFFI bindings, but they are lacking compared to the C extension. Upstream work will be needed before we can support zstd with PyPy. But it will be possible. The files added in this commit come from Git commit e637c1b214d5f869cf8116c550dcae23ec13b677 from https://github.com/indygreg/python-zstandard and are added without modifications. Some files from the upstream repository have been omitted, namely files related to continuous integration. In the spirit of full disclosure, I'm the maintainer of the "python-zstandard" project and have authored 100% of the code added in this commit. Unfortunately, the Python bindings have not been formally code reviewed by anyone. While I've tested much of the code thoroughly (I even have tests that fuzz APIs), there's a good chance there are bugs, memory leaks, not well thought out APIs, etc. If someone wants to review the code and send feedback to the GitHub project, it would be greatly appreciated. Despite my involvement with both projects, my opinions of code style differ from Mercurial's. The code in this commit introduces numerous code style violations in Mercurial's linters. So, the code is excluded from most lints. However, some violations I agree with. These have been added to the known violations ignore list for now.

PatchReview Introduction *patchreview-intro*
The Patch Review plugin allows easy single or multipatch code or diff reviews.
It opens each affected file in the patch or in a workspace diff in a diff view
in a separate tab.
VIM provides the |:diffpatch| and related commands to do single file reviews
but can not handle patch files containing multiple patches as is common with
software development projects. This plugin provides that missing
functionality.
It also improves on |:diffpatch|'s behavior of creating the patched files in
the same directory as original file which can lead to project workspace
pollution.
It does automatic diff generation for various version control systems by
running their diff command.
=============================================================================
PatchReview Options *patchreview-options*
g:patchreview_patch = {string}
Optional path to patch binary. PatchReview tries to locate patch on
system path automatically. If the binary is not on system path, this
option tell PatchReview the full path to the binary. This option, if
specified, overrides the default patch binary on the path.
examples:
(On Windows with Cygwin) >
let g:patchreview_patch = 'c:\\cygwin\\bin\\patch.exe'
<
(On *nix systems) >
let g:patchreview_patch = '/usr/bin/gpatch'
<
g:patchreview_filterdiff = {string}
Optional path to filterdiff binary. PatchReview tries to locate
filterdiff on system path automatically. If the binary is not on system
path, this option tell PatchReview the full path to the binary. This
option, if specified, overrides the default filterdiff binary on the
path.
examples:
(On Windows with Cygwin)
>
let g:patchreview_filterdiff = 'c:\\cygwin\\bin\\filterdiff.exe'
<
(On *nix systems)
>
let g:patchreview_filterdiff = '/usr/bin/filterdiff'

=============================================================================
PatchReview Usage *patchreview-usage*
*:DiffReview*
:DiffReview
Perform a diff review in the current directory under version control.
Currently supports Mercurial (hg), Subversion (svn), CVS, Bazaar (bzr) and
Monotone.
*:PatchReview*
:PatchReview patchfile_path [optional_source_directory]
Perform a patch review in the current directory based on the supplied
patchfile_path. If optional_source_directory is specified, patchreview is
done on that directory. Otherwise, the current directory is assumed to be
the source directory.
Only supports context or unified format patches.
