transactions: avoid late tear-down (issue641)
We use weak references (ugh) to avoid having to manually delete
transaction references out of each call frame when an exception occurs.
#!/bin/sh
hg init
echo "nothing" > a
hg add a
hg commit -m ancestor -d "1000000 0"
echo "something" > a
hg commit -m branch1 -d "1000000 0"
hg co 0
echo "something else" > a
hg commit -m branch2 -d "1000000 0"
hg merge 1
hg id
cat a
hg status
