contrib: add a hint if the Windows dependency MSI is already installed In the past, I've gotten confused when the script failed on seemingly random python installs (and thus the py3.8 install was commented out from the last time this happened to me, which has been reverted here). This particular error code means the package was already installed. For python, it means the major and minor version are the same, but the micro version may differ. In practice, ignoring the python installation failure will cause the pip installation that happens next to fail, because python.exe for that version is somewhere else on the system. This could probably be fixed by running py.exe with the major and minor version, but that is skipped during the install for some reason. I didn't feel like over complicating this though, and at least there's a better hint when the problem occurs. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D12560

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

Build environment variables:

* HGPATH: the path to the hg executable to call when CHGHG and HG are not set,
instead of "hg"
* HGPATHREL=1: when CHGHG and HG are not set, the hg executable will be ./hg
relative to the chg executable. Only works on linux, falls back to "hg"
otherwise.
