The home of 'Abort' is 'error' not 'util' however, a lot of code seems to be
confused about that and gives all the credit to 'util' instead of the
hardworking 'error'. In a spirit of equity, we break the cycle of injustice and
give back to 'error' the respect it deserves. And screw that 'util' poser.
For great justice.
This changeset adds support for a 'compression' parameter in bundle2 streams.
When set, it controls the compression algorithm used for the payload part of the
bundle2.
There is currently no usage of this except in tests.
GeneratorExit means the other end of the conversation has already
stopped listening, so don't try and yield out error
information. Instead, just let the GeneratorExit propagate normally.
This should resolve esoteric issues observed with servers that have
aggressive timeouts waiting for data to send to clients logging
internal Python errors[0]. This has been observed with both gunicorn's
gevent worker model and with scm-manager's built-in webserver (which
itself is something sitting inside jetty.)

This is a backout of 93589179c542, and a partial backout of 9b1628b91e74.
Windows won't execute 'dummyssh' directly, presumably because CreateProcess()
doesn't know how to execute a bash script:
$ hg clone -e "dummyssh" ssh://user@dummy/cloned sshclone
remote: 'dummyssh' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
remote: operable program or batch file.
abort: no suitable response from remote hg!
[255]
With the restoration of python as the executable, $TESTDIR needs to be restored
for these invocations, because python won't search $PATH for 'dummyssh':
$ hg clone -e "python dummyssh" ssh://user@dummy/cloned sshclone
remote: python: can't open file 'dummyssh': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
abort: no suitable response from remote hg!

The old output is very verbose and unsuitable for general debug level. It is
however very useful for debugging bundle2 generation or consumption issues. All
this verbose ouput is hidden under a 'devel.bundle2.debug' flag.
The part generation process was lacking a ui object and could not produce debug
output. It seems valuable to have some debug output on this part too, especially
now that we are planning to be able to hide it in the default --debug output.
When the progress extension is not enabled, each call to 'ui.progress' used to
issue a debug message. This results is a very verbose output and often redundant
in tests. Dropping it makes tests less volatile to factor they do not meant to
test.
We had to alter the sed trick in 'test-rename-merge2.t'. Sed is used to drop all
output from a certain point and hidding the progress output remove its anchor.
So we anchor on something else.
It is finally time to freeze the bundle2 format! To do so we:
- rename HG2Y to HG20,
- drop "b2x:" prefix from all part names,
- rename capability to "bundle2-exp" to "bundle2"
- rename the hook flag from 'bundle2-exp' to 'bundle2'
To support multiple bundle2 formats, we will need a function returning
the proper unbundler according to the header. We introduce such aa
function and change the usage in the code base. The function will get
smarter in later changesets.
This is somewhat similar to the dispatching we do for 'HG10' and 'HG11'.
The main target is to allow HG2Y support in an extension to ease transition of
companies using the experimental protocol in production (yeah...) But I've no
doubt this will be useful when playing with a future HG21.
If an exception is raised during a bundle2 part payload generation it is now
recorded in the bundle. If such exception occurs, we capture it, transmit an
abort exception through the bundle, cleanly close the current part payload and
raise it again. This allow to generate valid bundle even in case of exception so
that the consumer does not wait forever for a dead producer. This also allow to
raise the exception during unbundling at the exact point it happened during
bundling make debugging easier.
We are changing all integers that denote the size of a chunk to read to int32.
There are two main motivations for that.
First, we change everything to the same width (32 bits) to make it possible for
a reasonably agnostic actor to forward a bundle2 without any extra processing.
With this change, this could be achieved by just reading int32s and forwarding
chunks of the size read. A bit a smartness would be logic to detect the end of
stream but nothing too complicated.
Second, we need some capacity to transmit special information during the bundle
processing. For example we would like to be able to raise an exception while a
part is being read if this exception happend while this part was generated.
Having signed integer let us use negative numbers to trigger special events
during the parsing of the bundle.
The format is renamed for B2X to B2Y because this breaks binary
compatibility. The B2X format support is dropped. It was experimental to
allow this kind of things. All elements not directly related to the binary
format remain flagged "b2x" because they are still compatible.
We would like exceptions raised during the generation process to be gracefully
handled on the receiver side. We add a test for it. It shows that we are not
doing it yet.
The obsolete._enabled flag has become a config option. This updates all but one
of the tests to use the minimal number of flags necessary for them to pass. For
most tests this is just 'createmarkers', for a couple tests it's
'allowunstable', and for even fewer it's 'exchange'.
