This adds check that whether we have the 'store' requirement or not. If we don't
have that, we skip adding the 'bookmarksinstore' requirement and warn user about
it.

Another way we can do is to have a checkrequirementscompat() which will check whether we have BOOKMARKS_IN_STORE_REQUIREMENT but not store one and raise error. This one simply drops without any warning. We seems to have following options:
- Drop without any warning
- Drop with a warning
- Error
- Add store requirement (which means BOOKMARKS_IN_STORE_REQUIREMENT implies store requirement)
The tricky part is that all the requirements has default value. If requirement B depends on requirement A, and both are enabled by default, we cannot simply automatically enable A if B is true, because B is true by default. Warning would be good, but might end up a bit verbose for the same reason.
However if the user explicitly request A=no and B=yes, it seems bad to silently drop B since it was explicitly requested.
So, I don't see a good solution until we detect explicit activation vs default value (which is a scope bloat).
So for now, maybe using a verbose level message when some requirement are dropped ?
Very much agreed. Since we know that store is enabled by default and bookmarks in store is not enabled, we can be aware whether user is explicitly requesting something.

Yeah that sounds like a good and important start is this direction.
The commit message was hard to read.
localrepo: only use BOOKMARKS_IN_STORE_REQUIRMENT is we have a store
My suggestion: localrepo: only use 'bookmarksinstore' requirement if we have 'store'
This adds check that if we are using store and if we are not, we skip adding the
BOOKMARKS_IN_STORE_REQUIREMENT.
My suggestion: This adds a check that we are have the 'store' requirement and if we are not, we skip adding the 'bookmarksinstore'.
Regarding the patch itself, when will it be useful? Is the point to detect cases where we have created such repos? Or to prevent the user from creating new repos? Why don't we update the read path to ignore 'bookmarksinstore' if 'store' is not enabled? Can we have a test case or two (just manually add 'bookmarksinstore' to .hg/requires)?

Thank you!

We prevent user from creating new repos. Added a test for that.
