Feature release.
Backwards Compatibility Changes
===============================
* The infinitepush extension is believed to be unused, and will be
deleted at the end of 2020 unless users contact
mercurial-devel@mercurial-scm.org.
* 'hg grep' now searches working copy file contents by default. We
recognize this is a significant change from past behavior, but
surveys of large bodies of users indicated nobody used (and almost
nobody understood) the previous no-flags behavior of 'hg grep'.
The new behavior aligns with the behavior most users expected
(including hg's maintainers), which also happens to be the behavior
of 'git grep'. Given that the old behavior was confusing to the
point of being unusable, we were comfortable changing this behavior.
API Changes ===========
* 'mercurial.hg.update*' and 'mercurial.merge.update' now expect
a value from a set of NAMED_CONSTANTS ('merge.UPDATECHECK_*'
constants) rather than a collection of magic strings. As of now,
the values are the same, but code should be prepared for these
values to change in the future.
* 'mercurial.hg.updatetotally' is now more thorough about checking
its 'updatecheck' keyword argument. Previously invalid values would
have used the configured default updatecheck method, but now will
raise ValueError.
* 'mercurial.bookmarks.bmstore' no longer has a convenience method
for looking up changectx instances from a bookmark name. Use
'repo[repo.bookmarks[name]]' intead of 'repo.bookmarks.changectx(name)'.
