sslutil: print a warning when using TLS 1.0 on legacy Python...
sslutil: print a warning when using TLS 1.0 on legacy Python Mercurial now requires TLS 1.1+ when TLS 1.1+ is supported by the client. Since we made the decision to require TLS 1.1+ when running with modern Python versions, it makes sense to do something for legacy Python versions that only support TLS 1.0. Feature parity would be to prevent TLS 1.0 connections out of the box and require a config option to enable them. However, this is extremely user hostile since Mercurial wouldn't talk to https:// by default in these installations! I can easily see how someone would do something foolish like use "--insecure" instead - and that would be worse than allowing TLS 1.0! This patch takes the compromise position of printing a warning when performing TLS 1.0 connections when running on old Python versions. While this warning is no more annoying than the CA certificate / fingerprint warnings in Mercurial 3.8, we provide a config option to disable the warning because to many people upgrading Python to make the warning go away is not an available recourse (unlike pinning fingerprints is for the CA warning). The warning appears as optional output in a lot of tests.

Mercurial's default format for showing changes between two versions of
a file is compatible with the unified format of GNU diff, which can be
used by GNU patch and many other standard tools.
While this standard format is often enough, it does not encode the
following information:
- executable status and other permission bits
- copy or rename information
- changes in binary files
- creation or deletion of empty files
Mercurial also supports the extended diff format from the git VCS
which addresses these limitations. The git diff format is not produced
by default because a few widespread tools still do not understand this
format.
This means that when generating diffs from a Mercurial repository
(e.g. with :hg:`export`), you should be careful about things like file
copies and renames or other things mentioned above, because when
applying a standard diff to a different repository, this extra
information is lost. Mercurial's internal operations (like push and
pull) are not affected by this, because they use an internal binary
format for communicating changes.
To make Mercurial produce the git extended diff format, use the --git
option available for many commands, or set 'git = True' in the [diff]
section of your configuration file. You do not need to set this option
when importing diffs in this format or using them in the mq extension.
