Jun Wu 090171ada4 vlqencoding: encodes integers to variable-length byte arrays ... This is a common technique to store variable-length integers efficiently. It's compatible with both Thrift and Protobuf [1]. It's intended to be used in: - On-disk file format to make the file compact and avoid issues like https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/5681 (Obsolete markers code crashes with metadata keys/values longer than 255 bytes). - Thrift layer. [1]: https://developers.google.com/protocol-buffers/docs/encoding#varints Test Plan: ``` cargo test cargo clippy ``` Also ran a kcov coverage check and it says 100%. ``` cargo rustc --lib --profile test -- -Ccodegen-units=1 -Clink-dead-code -Zno-landing-pads kcov --include-path $PWD/src --verify target/kcov ./target/debug/*-???????????????? ``` Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D929		2017-11-10 12:12:04 -07:00
