tests: filter out uninteresting log events Core has new ui.log() calls added (for tracking extension loading and performance, for example), but in test-discovery-obshashrange.t it produces a bunch of lines that are unrelated to the test. So we filter them out to not touch test output. This is inspired by 1de3364320af in core.

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.4 into mercurial-4.3

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.5 into mercurial-4.4

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.6 into mercurial-4.5

test-compat: merge mercurial-4.7 into mercurial-4.6

test-compat: merge stable into mercurial-4.7

linter: silence rightful complains about unused variable

topic: merge _showlasttouched logic into _listtopics Makes --age work with --verbose.

topic: simplify _showlasttouched and _getlasttouched (and its data structure)

branching: merge with stable

split: add a --interactive flag While the interactive mode is useful for end-users, there are some cases where they don't need the interactivity overhead. Moreover, this allow the split command to be used in automated scripts.

split: take file patterns to limit selection on matching file patterns When splitting a big changeset, the user often wants to extract specific files from the changeset while leaving the others files intact. The split command can now be called with multiple file patterns. Only files that match one of the patterns will be shown in the interactive selection. The user will be able to create one or more commits with those files. When the user finishes splitting the matching files, a last commit will be made with the remaining of the files.

split: only accept explicit revision through the `-r` option We are about to introduce new non-optionnal arguments to defines files patterns. To avoid confusion and to be closer to the standard options, only accepts revisions with the `-r` option.

issue-6028: resolves 6028 - return (False, ".") instead of (False, '') Since 4.8, repo[] no longer takes an empty string, so we update to a valid with similar semantic. This value is strange and we should probably use an actual node ID here, however, this is an independent issue.

branching: merge with stable

tests: add sparserevlog cap since hg now has sparse revlogs by default CORE-TEST-OUTPUT-UPDATE: 3764330f76a6

split: rework the prompt to be more standard We dropped the initial capital and moved to a positive question.

split: add a option to discard remaining change during split This is useful to drop unwanted remaining change spotted during the split.

split: add a way to abort a split from the prompt This prompt is asking the user about the next step. Offering to abort there make sense.

split: add a help entry to the final prompt We are about to add more option in this prompt. Adding a way to document then seems like a good first step.

topic: make revset argument messages be similar to such messages in core

tests: don't forget to add hg serve pid to DAEMON_PIDS in test-wireproto.t Otherwise it leaves a process running after each run-tests.py launch.

test: adapt to change output change on default We now have a `wcache` directory in `.hg`.

safeguard: don't reimplement auto-publish if it's in core (will be in 4.9)

safeguard: the new default for auto-publish is 'publish'

stack: add a --children flag to stack If a commit in the stack has been merged outside the current topic, show a trailing status of (external-children)

extensions: avoid shadowing imported module names with exthelper methods The previous code worked, but confused pyscripter.

extensions: add fileset support to exthelper This will be tested by using it in lfs.

extensions: add uipopulate() support to exthelper

exthelper: clarify copyright and licence for the module The exthelper is quite useful and Matt Harbison is looking into having it upstreamed. We clarify the legal situation first.
