changeset 20449:fc965930c738

Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
(TYPICAL_FAILURE_SIZE): Renamed from MAX_FAILURE_ITEMS. Define it simply as a number. (DOUBLE_FAIL_STACK, regex_compile): Set the limit at the size TYPICAL_FAILURE_SIZE specifies, rather than at twice that much. (re_max_failures): Double the initial values. (INIT_FAIL_STACK): Use TYPICAL_FAILURE_SIZE so that INIT_FAILURE_ALLOC counts in the proper units. (INIT_FAILURE_ALLOC): Increase to 20. (FAIL_STACK_GROWTH_FACTOR): New macro. (GROW_FAIL_STACK): Renamed from DOUBLE_FAIL_STACK. FAIL_STACK_GROWTH_FACTOR controls what ratio to increase size by.
