repo: repo isolation, do not pass on repo.ui for creating new repos A repo should not get the configuration from an other repo, so create it with the global configuration in repo.baseui. This is done too when recreating a repo. The repo configuration is reread anyway. And now deleted repo configuration does not persist. [ orginal upstream message ]

run-tests: introduce --random for running tests in random error This is convenient when investigating failures one by one to avoid running the same fixed tests first every time. [ original upstream message ]

run-tests: only sort files when not given as argument os.listdir returns the files in any order. This has to be sorted. But when given as argument, the user should be allowed to set any order. This restores the behaviour before 9848a94e2a. [ original upstream message ]

tests: fix test-profile to not depend on HGPROF environment variable The test-profile test would fail if the user had HGPROF set to another profiler in their environment. This fix makes the test independent of that environment variable. Reverts the previous attempt to fix this, which was not cross platoform. [ original upstream message ]

tests: inform on Windows about unnecessary glob lines When glob lines directly match on windows, "/" (and not "\") was output in the path on the line. No glob matching is necessary in this case. The test output will look like this (when 5 tests have passed and no 4 has an unnecessary glob): ... Info, unnecessary glob: info about some/thing (glob) .. [ original upstream message ]

tests: quickly check if the glob line already matches the output This happens when a path with "/" as only glob char is matched on a non windows platform. (Currently one third of all glob matches.) The slowdown on windows and the speedup on other os are neglectable. [ original upstream message ]

export: show 'Date' header in a format that also is readable for humans 'export' is the official export format and used by patchbomb, but it would only show date as a timestamp that most humans might find it hard to relate to. It would be very convenient when reviewing a patch to be able to see what timestamp the patch will end up with. Mercurial has always used util.parsedate for parsing these headers. It can handle 'all' date formats, so we could just as well use a readable one. 'export' will now use the format used by 'log' - which is the format described as 'Unix date format' in the templating help. We assume that all parsers of '# HG changeset patch'es can handle that.

test: display used python hash seed We keep using a random seed for each run, but we "compute" it ourself to be able to reproduce a failed test run. [ original upstream message ]

run-tests.py: inherit PYTHONHASHSEED from environment if set This makes it possible to fix the seed by using for instance PYTHONHASHSEED=7 ./run-tests.py ... This can be very convenient when trying to debug problems that are influenced by hash values. Try different seed values until you find one that triggers the bad behaviour and then keep that while debugging. The value 0 will restore default Python behavior and disable randomization.
