    check-exec: write file in 'wcache' instead of 'cache' · 47e3f554df35
    Boris Feld authored
    Some cache are relevant or affected by the working copy used. So the `.hg/cache`
    directory is not the best place for them because multiple shared repository can
    end up fighting over them.
    
    To address this issue, we introduce a new 'wcache' directory to host this kind
    of cache.
    
    The first user are the `checkisexec` type file. These files describe property of
    the working copy and fit the use-case well.
