    dirstate-v2: freeze the on-disk format · bf11ff22a9af
    Pierre-Yves David authored
    It seems the format as reached a good balance. With a core of new capabilities
    that motivated it initially and enough new feature and room for future
    improvement to be a clear progress we can set a milestone for.
    
    Having the format frozen will help the feature to get real life testing, outside
    of the test suite.
    
    The feature itself stay experimental but the config gains a new name to avoid
    people enable non-frozen version by default.
    
    If too many bugs are reported during the RC we might move the format back to
    experimental and drop its support in future version (in favor of a new one)
