 It is common for machines (as opposed to humans) to consume Mercurial.
 This help topic describes some of the considerations for interfacing
 machines with Mercurial.
 
 Choosing an Interface
 =====================
 
 Machines have a choice of several methods to interface with Mercurial.
 These include:
 
 - Executing the ``hg`` process
 - Querying a HTTP server
 - Calling out to a command server
 
 Executing ``hg`` processes is very similar to how humans interact with
 Mercurial in the shell. It should already be familiar to you.
 
 :hg:`serve` can be used to start a server. By default, this will start
 a "hgweb" HTTP server. This HTTP server has support for machine-readable
 output, such as JSON. For more, see :hg:`help hgweb`.
 
 :hg:`serve` can also start a "command server." Clients can connect
 to this server and issue Mercurial commands over a special protocol.
 For more details on the command server, including links to client
 libraries, see https://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/CommandServer.
 
 :hg:`serve` based interfaces (the hgweb and command servers) have the
 advantage over simple ``hg`` process invocations in that they are
 likely more efficient. This is because there is significant overhead
 to spawn new Python processes.
 
 .. tip::
 
    If you need to invoke several ``hg`` processes in short order and/or
    performance is important to you, use of a server-based interface
    is highly recommended.
 
 Environment Variables
 =====================
 
 As documented in :hg:`help environment`, various environment variables
 influence the operation of Mercurial. The following are particularly
 relevant for machines consuming Mercurial:
 
 HGPLAIN
     If not set, Mercurial's output could be influenced by configuration
     settings that impact its encoding, verbose mode, localization, etc.
 
     It is highly recommended for machines to set this variable when
     invoking ``hg`` processes.
 
 HGENCODING
-   If not set, the locale used by Mercurial will be detected from the
-   environment. If the determined locale does not support display of
-   certain characters, Mercurial may render these character sequences
-   incorrectly (often by using "?" as a placeholder for invalid
-   characters in the current locale).

 HGRCPATH
     If not set, Mercurial will inherit config options from config files
     using the process described in :hg:`help config`. This includes
     inheriting user or system-wide config files.
 
     When utmost control over the Mercurial configuration is desired, the
     value of ``HGRCPATH`` can be set to an explicit file with known good
     configs. In rare cases, the value can be set to an empty file or the
     null device (often ``/dev/null``) to bypass loading of any user or
     system config files. Note that these approaches can have unintended
     consequences, as the user and system config files often define things
     like the username and extensions that may be required to interface
     with a repository.
 
 Consuming Command Output
 ========================
 
 It is common for machines to need to parse the output of Mercurial
 commands for relevant data. This section describes the various
 techniques for doing so.
 
 Parsing Raw Command Output
 --------------------------
 
 Likely the simplest and most effective solution for consuming command
 output is to simply invoke ``hg`` commands as you would as a user and
 parse their output.
 
 The output of many commands can easily be parsed with tools like
 ``grep``, ``sed``, and ``awk``.
 
 A potential downside with parsing command output is that the output
 of commands can change when Mercurial is upgraded. While Mercurial
 does generally strive for strong backwards compatibility, command
 output does occasionally change. Having tests for your automated
 interactions with ``hg`` commands is generally recommended, but is
 even more important when raw command output parsing is involved.
 
 Using Templates to Control Output
 ---------------------------------
 
 Many ``hg`` commands support templatized output via the
 ``-T/--template`` argument. For more, see :hg:`help templates`.
 
 Templates are useful for explicitly controlling output so that
 you get exactly the data you want formatted how you want it. For
 example, ``log -T {node}\n`` can be used to print a newline
 delimited list of changeset nodes instead of a human-tailored
 output containing authors, dates, descriptions, etc.
 
 .. tip::
 
    If parsing raw command output is too complicated, consider
    using templates to make your life easier.
 
 The ``-T/--template`` argument allows specifying pre-defined styles.
 Mercurial ships with the machine-readable styles ``json`` and ``xml``,
 which provide JSON and XML output, respectively. These are useful for
 producing output that is machine readable as-is.
 
 .. important::
 
    The ``json`` and ``xml`` styles are considered experimental. While
    they may be attractive to use for easily obtaining machine-readable
    output, their behavior may change in subsequent versions.
 
    These styles may also exhibit unexpected results when dealing with
    certain encodings. Mercurial treats things like filenames as a
    series of bytes and normalizing certain byte sequences to JSON
    or XML with certain encoding settings can lead to surprises.
 
 Command Server Output
 ---------------------
 
 If using the command server to interact with Mercurial, you are likely
 using an existing library/API that abstracts implementation details of
 the command server. If so, this interface layer may perform parsing for
 you, saving you the work of implementing it yourself.
 
 Output Verbosity
 ----------------
 
 Commands often have varying output verbosity, even when machine
 readable styles are being used (e.g. ``-T json``). Adding
 ``-v/--verbose`` and ``--debug`` to the command's arguments can
 increase the amount of data exposed by Mercurial.
 
 An alternate way to get the data you need is by explicitly specifying
 a template.
 
 Other Topics
 ============
 
 revsets
    Revisions sets is a functional query language for selecting a set
    of revisions. Think of it as SQL for Mercurial repositories. Revsets
    are useful for querying repositories for specific data.
 
    See :hg:`help revsets` for more.
 
 share extension
    The ``share`` extension provides functionality for sharing
    repository data across several working copies. It can even
    automatically "pool" storage for logically related repositories when
    cloning.
 
    Configuring the ``share`` extension can lead to significant resource
    utilization reduction, particularly around disk space and the
    network. This is especially true for continuous integration (CI)
    environments.
 
    See :hg:`help -e share` for more.
