setup: don't skip the search for global hg.exe if there is no local instance The point of trying not to blindly execute `hg` on Windows is that the local hg.exe would be given precedence, and if py3 isn't on PATH, it errors out with a modal dialog. But that's not a problem if there is no local executable that could be run. The problem that I recently ran into was I upgraded the repo format to use zstd. But doing a `make clean` deletes all of the supporting libraries, causing the next run to abort with a message about not understanding the `revlog-compression-zstd` requirement. By getting rid of the local executable in the previous commit when cleaning, we avoid leaving a broken executable around, and avoid the py3 PATH problem too. There is still a small hole in that `hg.exe` needs to be deleted before switching between py2/py3/PyOxidizer builds, because the zstd module won't load. But that seems like good hygiene anyway.

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.
