This removes an optimization that was introduced in 5a644704d5eb but was too
aggressive - as indicated by how it changed test-mq-merge.t .
We are walking filelogs to find copy sources and we can thus not be sure to hit
the base revision and find the renamed file there - it could also be in the
first ancestor of the base ... in the filelog.
We are walking the filelog and can thus not easily know when we hit the first
ancestor of the base revision and which filename to look for there. Instead, we
use _findlimit like mergecopies do: The lower bound for how far we have to go
is found from the lowest changelog revision that is an ancestor of only one of
the compared revisions. Any filelog ancestor with a revision number lower than
that revision will be the ancestor of both compared revisions, and there is
thus no reason to go further back than that.
The inverse of a rename is a rename, but the inverse of a copy is not a copy.
Presenting it as such -- in particular, stuffing it into the same dict as real
copies -- causes bugs because other code starts believing the inverse copies
are real.
The only test whose output changes is test-mv-cp-st-diff.t. When a backwards
status -C command is run where a copy is involved, the inverse copy (which was
hitherto presented as a real copy) is no longer displayed.
Keeping track of inverse copies is useful in some situations -- composability
of diffs, for example, since adding "a" followed by an inverse copy "b" to "a"
is equivalent to a rename "b" to "a". However, representing them would require
a more complex data structure than the same dict in which real copies are also
stored.
The existing copy detection API was designed with merge in mind and
was ill-suited for doing status/diff. The new pathcopies
implementation gives more accurate, easier to use results for
comparing two revisions, and is much simpler to understand.
Test notes:
- test-mv-cp-st.t results finds more renames in the reverse direction now
- test-mq-merge.t was always wrong and duplicated a copy in diff that
was already present in one of the parent revisions
Globbing is usually used for filenames, so on windows it is reasonable and very
convenient that glob patterns accepts '\' or '/' when the pattern specifies
'/'.
