This basically means that heads in a filtered graph appear in reverse
chronological order. Before, "jj log -r 'tags()'" in linux-stable repo would
look randomly sorted once you ran "jj debug reindex" in it.
With this change, indexing is more like breadth-first search, and BFS is
known to be bad at rendering nice graph (because branches run in parallel.)
However, we have a post process to group topological branches, so we don't
have this problem. For serialization formats like Mercurial's revlog iirc,
BFS leads to bad compression ratio, but our index isn't that kind of data.
Reindexing gets slightly slower, but I think this is negligible.

Another idea is to sort heads chronologically and run DFS-based topological
sorting. It's ad-hoc, but worked surprisingly well for my local repositories.
For repositories with lots of long-running branches, this commit will provide
more predictable result than DFS-based one.
`jj chmod` won't operate on conflicts involving non-files on the
positive sides. However, the error message says "None of the sides of
the conflict are files", which is not correct.
That is, jj will use ui.default_description as a starting point when
user is about to describe an empty change.
I think it might be confusing to do this with -m / --stdin (violates
WYSIWYG), so I'm only doing this when jj invokes an editor.
Also, this could evolve into a proper template in the future instead of
just plain text, to allow inheriting from parent change(s), for example.
Partially addresses #1354.
We anyway trim the newlines eventually and this just does that eagerly
so we output the "correct" description back to stdout (on describe for
example, we'd now print the first non empty line).
Empty files can be confusing in diff output. For example:
```
Added regular file file1:
Added regular file file2:
1: foo
```
This commit adds an "(empty)" placeholder instead. Since it's not
colored, and doesn't have line numbers, it will hopefully not be
mistaken for a file with the contents "(empty)".
AFAIK, we can't make HEAD detached in an empty Git repository, so we need
to temporarily switch to the new default branch before checking out.
Fixes#2047
`update_from_content()` already writes file content for each term of
an unresolved merge, so it seems consistent for it to also write the
file content for resolved merges. I think this should simplify further
refactoring for tree-level conflicts and for preserving the executable
bit.
Since `update_from_contents()` only works with file contents and not
the executable or other kinds of paths, I think it makes more sense
for it to deal with `FileId`s instead of `TreeValue`s.
I think I moved way too many functions onto `Merge<Option<TreeValue>>`
in 82883e648d. This effectively reverts almost all of that
commit. The `Merge<T>` type is simple container and it seems like it
should be at fairly low level in the dependency graph. By moving
functions off of it, we can get rid of the back-depdencies from the
`merge` module to the `conflict` module that I introduced when I moved
`Merge` to the `merge` module. I'm thinking the `conflict` module can
focus on materialized conflicts.
It's messy if pager and child output are interleaved as the pager controls
the tty.
Windows code is untested. I think the underlying I/O behavior is similar, but
I don't have expertise.
Two things will be added:
a. show warning if child exited with non-zero status
b. attach pager stdin to stderr of child process
I think (a) could be propagated from generate_diff() as an error variant, but
for (b), it makes sense to pass ui down to the function.
They are shown next to the change and commit id, since they are other names the
commit can be referred by.
The description is separated from the branches by a ` | ` when there are
branches, so that one can tell the branches from the description without color.
The result looks like this: 
Maybe we could load GitBackend without resolving .git symlink, but that would
introduce more subtle bugs. Instead, we calculate the expected Git workdir path
from the canonical ".git" path.
Fixes#2011
This makes it possible to use ed25519 and ed25519-sk keys by trying
them one at a time. However, it still fails if one of them is
password-protected; we don't try the next key in that case.
