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.
These open the changelog and manifest, respectively, directly so you don't
need to specify the path.
The options have been added to debugindex, debugdata and debugrevlog.
The patch also fixes some minor usage-related bugs.
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.
When issuing `hg pull -r REV` in a repo with no common ancestor with the
remote repo, the message 'requesting all changes' is printed, even though only
the changese that are ancestors of REV are actually requested. This can be
confusing for users (see
http://www.selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/2010-October/035508.html).
This silences the message if (and only if) the '-r' option was passed.
