packaging: extract pre-computed version when running from plain tarball The tarballs created by setup.py are not including the usual archive markers that `hg archive` leaves, so the rewrite of the version number computation actually left the empty version string around. This meant that installations from PyPI would use 0.0.0 as version string. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10502

      Mercurial

      =========

      Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool

      for software developers.

      Basic install::

       $ make            # see install targets

       $ make install    # do a system-wide install

       $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup

       $ hg              # see help

      Running without installing::

       $ make local      # build for inplace usage

       $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

      See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation

      instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.

      Notes for packagers

      ===================

      Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to

      provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The

      module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor

      is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard

      to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported

      configuration.
