Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
Enabled transaction support in the bsddb backend. It uses the anydbm code where possible, only replacing methods where the db is opened (it uses the btree opener specifically.) Also cleaned up some change note generation. Made the backends package work with pydoc too.
