utils: don't use FromCache - it doesn't work properly

It seems like the caching worked fine for caching the list of ui_ids. The
actual records were however not cached so they had to be fetched one by one
anyway. Fetching everything up front is cheaper than fetching one by one.

.. _subrepos:

=============================================
working with Kallithea and mercurial subrepos
=============================================

example usage of Subrepos with Kallithea::

    ## init a simple repo
    hg init repo1
    cd repo1
    echo "file1" > file1
    hg add file1
    hg ci --message "initial file 1"

    #clone subrepo we want to add
    hg clone http://rc.local/subrepo

    ## use path like url to existing repo in Kallithea
    echo "subrepo = http://rc.local/subrepo" > .hgsub

    hg add .hgsub
    hg ci --message "added remote subrepo"



In file list of repo1 you will see a connected subrepo at revision it was
during cloning.
Clicking in subrepos link should send you to proper repository in Kallithea

cloning repo1 will also clone attached subrepository.

Next we can edit the subrepo data, and push back to Kallithea. This will update
both of repositories.
