debian: support building a single deb for multiple py3 versions...
debian: support building a single deb for multiple py3 versions Around transitions from one python minor version to another (such as 3.7 to 3.8), the current packaging can be slightly problematic - it produces a `control` file that requires that the version of `python3` that's installed be exactly the one that was used on the build machine for the `mercurial` package, by containing a line like: Depends: sensible-utils, libc6 (>= 2.14), python3 (<< 3.8), python3 (>= 3.7~), python3:any (>= 3.5~) This is because it "knows" we only built for v3.7, which is the current default on my system. By building the native components for multiple versions, we can make it produce a line like this, which is compatible with 3.7 AND 3.8: Depends: sensible-utils, libc6 (>= 2.14), python3 (<< 3.9), python3 (>= 3.7~), python3:any (>= 3.5~) This isn't *normally* required, so I'm not making it the default. For those that receive their python3 and mercurial packages from their distro, and/or don't have to worry about a situation where the team that manages the python3 installation isn't the same as the team that manages the mercurial installation, this is probably not necessary. I chose the names `DEB_HG_*` because `DEB_*` is passed through `debuild` automatically (otherwise we'd have to explicitly allow the options through, which is a nuisance), and the `HG` part is to make it clear that this isn't a "standard" debian option that other packages might respect. Test Plan: 1. "nothing changed": - built a deb without these changes - built a deb with these changes but everything at the default - used diffoscope to compare, all differences were due to timestamps 2. "explicit is the same as implicit" (single version) - built a deb with everything at the default - built a deb with DEB_HG_PYTHON_VERSIONS=3.7 - used diffoscope to compare, all differences were due to timestamps 3. "explicit is the same as implicit" (multi version) - built a deb with DEB_HG_MULTI_VERSION=1 - built a deb with DEB_HG_PYTHON_VERSIONS=3.7 - used diffoscope to compare, all differences were due to timestamps 4. (single version, 3.7) doesn't work with python3.8 - `/usr/bin/python3.7 /usr/bin/hg debuginstall` works - `/usr/bin/python3.8 /usr/bin/hg debuginstall` crashes 5. (multi version, 3.7 + 3.8) - `/usr/bin/python3.7 /usr/bin/hg debuginstall` works - `/usr/bin/python3.8 /usr/bin/hg debuginstall` works Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8642

Mercurial for Windows



Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!




Mercurial is a command-line application. You must run it from
the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a<br /> href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW shell).




Note: the standard http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW
msys startup script uses rxvt which has problems setting up
standard input and output. Running bash directly works
correctly.




For documentation, please visit the <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial web site.
You can also download a free book, <a<br /> href="https://book.mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial: The Definitive
Guide.




By default, Mercurial installs to C:\Program
Files\Mercurial. The Mercurial command is called
hg.exe.



Testing Mercurial after you've installed it




The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is
to just type the following at the command prompt:




hg



This command should print a useful help message. If it does,
other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.



Configuration notes


Default editor



The default editor for commit messages is 'notepad'. You can set
the EDITOR (or HGEDITOR) environment variable
to specify your preference or set it in mercurial.ini:



[ui]
editor = whatever


Configuring a Merge program



It should be emphasized that Mercurial by itself doesn't attempt
to do a Merge at the file level, neither does it make any
attempt to Resolve the conflicts.




By default, Mercurial will use the merge program defined by the
HGMERGE environment variable, or uses the one defined
in the mercurial.ini file. (see <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/wiki/MergeProgram">MergeProgram
on the Mercurial Wiki for more information)



Reporting problems




Before you report any problems, please consult the <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/">Mercurial web site
and see if your question is already in our list of <a<br /> href="https://mercurial-scm.org/wiki/FAQ">Frequently
Answered Questions (the "FAQ").




If you cannot find an answer to your question, please feel free
to send mail to the Mercurial mailing list, at <a<br /> href="mailto:mercurial@mercurial-scm.org">mercurial@mercurial-scm.org.
Remember, the more useful information you include in your
report, the easier it will be for us to help you!




If you are IRC-savvy, that's usually the fastest way to get
help. Go to #mercurial on irc.freenode.net.
