streamclone: define first iteration of version 2 of stream format (This patch is based on a first draft from Gregory Szorc, with deeper rework) Version 1 of the stream clone format was invented many years ago and suffers from a few deficiencies: 1) Filenames are stored in store-encoded (on filesystem) form rather than in their internal form. This makes future compatibility with new store filename encodings more difficult. 2) File entry "headers" consist of a newline of the file name followed by the string file size. Converting strings to integers is avoidable overhead. We can't store filenames with newlines (manifests have this limitation as well, so it isn't a major concern). But the big concern here is the necessity for readline(). Scanning for newlines means reading ahead and that means extra buffer allocations and slicing (in Python) and this makes performance suffer. 3) Filenames aren't compressed optimally. Filenames should be compressed well since there is a lot of repeated data. However, since they are scattered all over the stream (with revlog data in between), they typically fall outside the window size of the compressor and don't compress. 4) It can only exchange stored based content, being able to exchange caches too would be nice. 5) It is limited to a stream-based protocol and isn't suitable for an on-disk format for general repository reading because the offset of individual file entries requires scanning the entire file to find file records. As part of enabling streaming clones to work in bundle2, #2 proved to have a significant negative impact on performance. Since bundle2 provides the opportunity to start fresh, Gregory Szorc figured he would take the opportunity to invent a new streaming clone data format. The new format devised in this series addresses #1, #2, and #4. It punts on #3 because it was complex without yielding a significant gain and on #5 because devising a new store format that "packs" multiple revlogs into a single "packed revlog" is massive scope bloat. However, this v2 format might be suitable for streaming into a "packed revlog" with minimal processing. If it works, great. If not, we can always invent stream format when it is needed. This patch only introduces the bases of the format. We'll get it usable through bundle2 first, then we'll extend the format in future patches to bring it to its full potential (especially #4).

Synopsis
""""""""
**hg** *command* [*option*]... [*argument*]...
Description
"""""""""""
The **hg** command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial
system.
Command Elements
""""""""""""""""
files...
indicates one or more filename or relative path filenames; see
`File Name Patterns`_ for information on pattern matching
path
indicates a path on the local machine
revision
indicates a changeset which can be specified as a changeset
revision number, a tag, or a unique substring of the changeset
hash value
repository path
either the pathname of a local repository or the URI of a remote
repository.
.. include:: hg.1.gendoc.txt
Files
"""""
``/etc/mercurial/hgrc``, ``$HOME/.hgrc``, ``.hg/hgrc``
This file contains defaults and configuration. Values in
``.hg/hgrc`` override those in ``$HOME/.hgrc``, and these override
settings made in the global ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` configuration.
See |hgrc(5)|_ for details of the contents and format of these
files.
``.hgignore``
This file contains regular expressions (one per line) that
describe file names that should be ignored by **hg**. For details,
see |hgignore(5)|_.
``.hgsub``
This file defines the locations of all subrepositories, and
tells where the subrepository checkouts came from. For details, see
:hg:`help subrepos`.
``.hgsubstate``
This file is where Mercurial stores all nested repository states. *NB: This
file should not be edited manually.*
``.hgtags``
This file contains changeset hash values and text tag names (one
of each separated by spaces) that correspond to tagged versions of
the repository contents. The file content is encoded using UTF-8.
``.hg/last-message.txt``
This file is used by :hg:`commit` to store a backup of the commit message
in case the commit fails.
``.hg/localtags``
This file can be used to define local tags which are not shared among
repositories. The file format is the same as for ``.hgtags``, but it is
encoded using the local system encoding.
Some commands (e.g. revert) produce backup files ending in ``.orig``,
if the ``.orig`` file already exists and is not tracked by Mercurial,
it will be overwritten.
Bugs
""""
Probably lots, please post them to the mailing list (see Resources_
below) when you find them.
