Preparing for action list split-up, making sure the final change don't have any
test changes.
The patch moves debug statements around without really changing anything.
Arguably, it temporarily makes the code worse. The only justification is that
it makes it easier to review the test changes ... and in the end the big change
will not change test output at all.
The changes to test output are due to changes in the ordering of debug output.
That is mainly because we now do the debug logging for files when we actually
process them. Files are also processed in a slightly different but still
correct order. It is now primarily ordered by action type, secondarily by
filename.
The patch introduces some redundancy. Some of it will be removed again, some of
it will in the end help code readability and efficiency. It is possible that we
later on could introduce a "process this action list and do some logging and
progress reporting and apply this function".
The "preserving X for resolve" debug statements will only have single space
indentation. It will no longer have a leading single space indented "f: msg ->
m" message. Having this message double indented would thus no longer make
sense.
The bid actions will temporarily be sorted using a custom sort key that happens
to match the sort order the simplified code will have in the end.
The ordering of actions matters. Normal file system semantics is that files
have to be removed before a directory with the same name can be created.
Before the first ordering key was to have 'r' and 'f' actions come first,
secondary key was the filename.
Because of future refactorings we want to consistently have all action types
(with a sensible priority) as separate first keys. Grouped by action type, we
sort by filename.
Not processing in strict filename order could give worse performance,
especially on spinning disks. That is however primarily an issue in the cases
where "all" actions are of the same kind and will be grouped together anyway.
Show messages at a point where the actions have been sorted, thus preparing for
backout of 14f4258e3526.
This makes manifestmerge more of a silent operation, just like 'copies' is.
Indent 'preserving' messages to make them subordinate to the action logging so
they fit in the new context. (The 'preserving' messages are quite redundant and
could also be removed completely.)
The -> in debug messages is currently overloaded to mean both source to dest
and dest to source. To fix this, we add explicit labels and make the arrow
direction consistent.
Quite a few tests fail in noisy but meaningless ways when the test suite
is run with generaldelta enabled:
./run-tests.py --extra-config-opt=format.generaldelta=1
This reduces the amount of noise introduced by the debugindex command,
the main source of differences. In my environment, when testing with
generaldelta enabled, this change reduces the number of completely
failing tests from 21 to 8.
For divergent renames the following message is printed during merge:
note: possible conflict - file was renamed multiple times to:
newfile
file2
When a file is renamed in one branch and deleted in the other, the file still
exists after a merge. With this change a similar message is printed for mv+rm:
note: possible conflict - file was deleted and renamed to:
newfile
For filelogs, debugindex and debugdata can be called with the file name
directly instead of the path to the revlog. Since in the future filelogs
will no longer be valid revlogs, calling with a path to the revlog is
deprecated for debugdata. For debugindex it is expected to still work,
but I changed them as well for consistency.
See the Hg Book on why we actually want to detect this case:
http://hgbook.red-bean.com/read/mercurial-in-daily-use.html#id364290
Before:
$ hg up deadbeef
warning: detected divergent renames of X to:
...
After:
$ hg up deadbeef
note: possible conflict - X was renamed multiple times to:
...
No functionality change.
