It's worth noting that in theory it should be possible to transition from buffer to memoryview. However, there are various bugs in various Python 2 versions where memoryview isn't accepted. Most notable is that the zlib module doesn't accept memoryview until Python 3 IIRC. So we're stuck with buffer for a while :/ REPOSITORY rHG Mercurial REVISION DETAIL https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D107 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: alex_gaynor, #hg-reviewers, durin42 Cc: indygreg, mercurial-devel _______________________________________________ Mercurial-devel mailing list Mercurial-devel@mercurial-scm.org https://www.mercurial-scm.org/mailman/listinfo/mercurial-devel
