chg: respect XDG_RUNTIME_DIR...
chg: respect XDG_RUNTIME_DIR $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR [1] is a better place for user daemons. Let's use it and fallback to $TMPDIR. After this patch, chg will try socket paths in the following order: 1. $CHGSOCKNAME 2. $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/chg/server 3. ${TMPDIR:-tmp}/chg$UID/server [1]: https://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

cHg
===

A fast client for Mercurial command server running on Unix.

Install:

$ make
$ make install

Usage:

$ chg help # show help of Mercurial
$ alias hg=chg # replace hg command
$ chg --kill-chg-daemon # terminate background server

Environment variables:

Although cHg tries to update environment variables, some of them cannot be
changed after spawning the server. The following variables are specially
handled:

* configuration files are reloaded automatically by default.
* CHGHG or HG specifies the path to the hg executable spawned as the
background command server.

The following variables are available for testing:

* CHGDEBUG enables debug messages.
* CHGSOCKNAME specifies the socket path of the background cmdserver.
* CHGTIMEOUT specifies how many seconds chg will wait before giving up
connecting to a cmdserver. If it is 0, chg will wait forever. Default: 60
