           Summary: hg init race on requires file
          Severity: bug
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: mpm at selenic.com
          Hardware: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 2.6.2
         Component: Mercurial
           Product: Mercurial

If a client tries to read a repo while hg init is creating it, after
.hg/00changelog.i has been created but before .hg/requires is created, they
will get an error about unknown revlog format.

This error is intended to prevent old clients (before requires was introduced)
from reading a new repo, but backfires here. We should fix the creation order.
See localrepo.__init__ with create=True.
