notes to self:

  • want to add the parent in dirstate (so that localrepo.changes doesn't report modified after a merge)
  • want to add the base in changegroup (so that full revision can be inserted)

IDEAS

  • Get rid of metadatas in manifest, put them in the filelog (like copies). It makes sense because each change to a file should be reflected at the filelog level.
  • add a delete entry in the filelog and add it to the manifest (that way we know when the head is removed, and 'hg log filename' will show the deletion)
