changelog: optionally store added and removed files in changeset extras As mentioned in an earlier patch, copies._chain() is used a lot in the changeset-centric version of pathcopies(). It is expensive because it needs to look at the manifest in order to filter out copies whose target file has since been removed. I want to store the sets of added and removed files in the changeset in order to speed that up. This patch does the writing part of that. It could easily be a separate config, but it's currently tied to experimental.copies.write-to since that's the only real use case (it will also make the {file_*} template keywords faster, but I doubt that anyone cares enough about those to write extra metadata for them). The new information is stored in the changeset extras. Since they're always subsets of the changeset's "files" list, they're stored as indexes into that list. I've stored the indexes as stringified ints separated by NUL bytes. The size of 00changelog.d for the hg repo increased in size by 0.28% percent (compared to the size with only copy information in the changesets, which in turn is 0.17% larger than without copy information). We could store only the delta between the indexes and we could store them in binary, but the chosen format is more readable. We could also have implemented this as a cache outside the changelog. One advantage of doing it that way is that we would get the speedups from the {file_*} template keywords also on old repos. Another advantage is that it we can rewrite the cache if we find a bug in how we calculate the set of files. A disadvantage is that it would be more complex. Another is that it would surely use more space. We already write the copy information to the changeset extras, so it seems like a small step to also write these file sets.

Build Status Code Coverage

This library provides encoding and decoding for the Concise Binary Object Representation (CBOR) (RFC 7049) serialization format.

There exists another Python CBOR implementation (cbor) which is faster on CPython due to its C extensions. On PyPy, cbor2 and cbor are almost identical in performance. The other implementation also lacks documentation and a comprehensive test suite, does not support most standard extension tags and is known to crash (segfault) when passed a cyclic structure (say, a list containing itself).
