Err.. yuck. We're going to pass a string and then look it up with
getattr?
Ok, so now I'm at "yuck", but I have no idea what the motivation for
this is without reading all the patches. But all the patches have
one-line descriptions so I have no idea what the underlying bug is and
why this is the right fix. So now I'm at "yuck" plus "huh?".
My take: the deeper problem here is that the filecache scheme is
incestuous with the repo object, which makes it hard to repurpose for
use with dirstate. So it seems the right fix is to have a base class
(generic file caching) and derived classes (current class + one to make
dirstate happy).
