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.
Many tests didn't change back from subdirectories at the end of the tests ...
and they don't have to. The missing 'cd ..' could always be added when another
test case is added to the test file.
This change do that tests (99.5%) consistently end up in $TESTDIR where they
started, thus making it simpler to extend them or move them around.
Before this patch, Windows always did the wrong thing with exec bits
when committing a merge: consult the flags in first parent.
Now we manually recompute the result of merging flags at commit time,
which almost always does the right thing (except when there are
conflicts between symlink and exec flags).
To do this, we:
- pull flag synthesis out into its own function
- delay building this function unless it's needed
- add a merge case that compares flags in local and other against the ancestor
This has been tested in multiple ways on Linux:
- running the whole test suite with both old and new code in place,
checking for differences in each flags() result
- running the whole test suite while comparing real on-disk flags
against synthetic ones for merges
- test-issue1802 (from Martin Geisler) which disables exec bit
checking on Unix
