templatekw: make negrev return empty for wdir() and nullrev...
templatekw: make negrev return empty for wdir() and nullrev I considered just returning the same output that {rev} returns here, but {rev} also returns essentially gibberish: either an INT_MAX-kind of variable for wdir() or -1 for null. Since these are numbers that are intended to be used for calculations, and since the numbers for wdir() and -1 are not really very helpful for calculation (and worse, when used as a revision number -1 is equal to unhidden tip), I figured the most reasonable thing to do here is to just return nothing for negrev. This could potentially break scripts that are expecting to parse a nonempty integer out of a {negrev}, but that seems like a very remote concern at this juncture.

Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will
attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant.
To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable::
[pager]
pager = less -FRX
If no pager is set in the user or repository configuration, Mercurial uses the
environment variable $PAGER. If $PAGER is not set, pager.pager from the default
or system configuration is used. If none of these are set, a default pager will
be used, typically `less` on Unix and `more` on Windows.
.. container:: windows
On Windows, `more` is not color aware, so using it effectively disables color.
MSYS and Cygwin shells provide `less` as a pager, which can be configured to
support ANSI color codes. See :hg:`help config.color.pagermode` to configure
the color mode when invoking a pager.
You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the
pager.ignore list::
[pager]
ignore = version, help, update
To ignore global commands like :hg:`version` or :hg:`help`, you have
to specify them in your user configuration file.
To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command,
you can use --pager=<value>:
- use as needed: `auto`.
- require the pager: `yes` or `on`.
- suppress the pager: `no` or `off` (any unrecognized value
will also work).
To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set::
[ui]
paginate = never
which will prevent the pager from running.
