Hello,
I wrote a fraction of hg status in rust, just the minimum needed to
compare current revision and working copy with few of the flags and
config settings supported. As you can imagine, the goal was better
performance. Before trying to upstream bits of this, I figured I'd
check there's interest for this change in particular, or this kind
of changes in general (I suspect rust would bring significant
improvements to hg cat or hg files). The rest of this mail is more
details.
This sounds _very_ promising and I'd love to see what you've got!
Valentin's experiment is visible in Octobus' development repository:
https://mirror.octobus.net/octobus/mercurial-devel/log?rev=c7af02%3A%3A
Valentin initial goal was to produce a proof of concept. Now that this
experiment is a clear success (as you noticed), we (Octobus) are looking
into turning it into more production ready code upstream. Raphaël Gomès
started working on that (with Georges' help). He should start sending
patches about it in the coming weeks.
Cheers,
