Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
The need for patching sysconfig.py and package.py is gone. So all files that are created by the scripts in the CWD are automatically created in a writeable area.

PyPy3 is a fast, compliant alternative implementation of the Python
language (3.7.13, 3.8.13, 3.9.12). It has several advantages and distinct
features:

 - Speed: thanks to its Just-in-Time compiler, Python programs often run faster
          on PyPy3.
 - Memory usage: large, memory-hungry Python programs might end up taking less
                 space than they do in CPython.
 - Compatibility: PyPy3 is highly compatible with existing python code. It
                  supports ctypes and can run popular python libraries like
                  twisted and django.
 - Sandboxing: PyPy3 provides the ability to run untrusted code in a fully
               secure way.
 - Stackless: PyPy3 can be configured to run in stackless mode, providing
              micro-threads for massive concurrency.
 - As well as other features.
