Summary:
This augments `/tree` to yields the size and content sha1 hash for the entries.
This is important for Eden and avoids additional round trips to the server.
The content hashing is the portion that I expect some push back on,
because it doesn't appear to be cached today and the implementation
here does a simplistic fetch and hash. By doing this we hope to
squash out a potential later fetch of the entire contents when
buck build is run.

Mononoke is a next-generation server for the Mercurial source control
system, meant to scale up to accepting
thousands of commits every hour across millions of files. It is primarily
written in the Rust programming language.
Caveat Emptor
Mononoke is still in early stages of development. We are making it available now because we plan to
start making references to it from our other open source projects such as
Eden.
The version that we provide on GitHub does not build yet.
This is because the code is exported verbatim from an internal repository at Facebook, and
not all of the scaffolding from our internal repository can be easily extracted. The key areas
where we need to shore things up are:
Full support for a standard cargo build.
Open source replacements for Facebook-internal services (blob store, logging etc).
The current goal is to get Mononoke working on Linux. Other Unix-like OSes may
be supported in the future.
