Comment:
  Thanks for the report, but I'm not interested into trying to do anything 
about this, as this is a rather exotic use case.

SftpDrive is a commercial product costing money and besides that I'm not 
interested in spending time trying to set up this test environment.

So, either you find somone else who is interested in looking into this or you 
dig into debugging the code your self.

As a hint for whoever would like to look at this: The mayor difference between 
0.7 and 0.8 is that we now directly access the .hg/dirstate file in 0.8 to show 
the overlay icons of the files. So there could be something in the code path 
that reads that file when done over SftpDrive. This is in the code for the C++ 
shell extension ( 
http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/stable/src/tip/win32/shellext/ ).

Reading of the dirstate file is done in 
http://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/stable/src/tip/win32/shellext/dirstate.cpp#cl-23
 (function Dirstate::read).

For debugging, it might be good to have the output of the tool DebugView, which 
contains TRACE output of the C++ shell extension.

Closing this as wontfix for now.

Changes:
  status: new -> wontfix
