bookmark: add a test for a race condition on push...
bookmark: add a test for a race condition on push Bookmark pointing to unknown nodes are ignored. Later these ignored bookmarks are dropped when writing the file back on disk. On paper, this behavior should be fine, but with the current implementation, it can lead to unexpected bookmark deletions. In theory, to make sure writer as a consistent view, taking the lock also invalidate bookmark data we already loaded into memory. However this invalidation is incomplete. The data are stored in a `filecache` that preserve them if the bookmark related file are untouched. In practice, the bookmark data in memory also depends of the changelog content, because of the step checking if the bookmarks refers to a node known to the changelog. So if the bookmark data were loaded from an up to date bookmark file but filtered with an outdated changelog file this go undetected. This condition is fairly specific, but can occurs very often in practice. We introduce a test recreating the situation. The test comes in an independant changeset to show it actually reproduce the situation. The fix will come soon after. A large share of the initial investigation of this race condition was made by Valentin Gatien-Baron <valentin.gatienbaron@gmail.com>.

Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will
attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant.
To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable::
[pager]
pager = less -FRX
If no pager is set in the user or repository configuration, Mercurial uses the
environment variable $PAGER. If $PAGER is not set, pager.pager from the default
or system configuration is used. If none of these are set, a default pager will
be used, typically `less` on Unix and `more` on Windows.
.. container:: windows
On Windows, `more` is not color aware, so using it effectively disables color.
MSYS and Cygwin shells provide `less` as a pager, which can be configured to
support ANSI color codes. See :hg:`help config.color.pagermode` to configure
the color mode when invoking a pager.
You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the
pager.ignore list::
[pager]
ignore = version, help, update
To ignore global commands like :hg:`version` or :hg:`help`, you have
to specify them in your user configuration file.
To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command,
you can use --pager=<value>:
- use as needed: `auto`.
- require the pager: `yes` or `on`.
- suppress the pager: `no` or `off` (any unrecognized value
will also work).
To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set::
[ui]
paginate = never
which will prevent the pager from running.
