packaging: ship only a single binary Debian package We merge the mercurial and mercurial-common binary packages into a single mercurial package. This is essentially to ease installation (and upgrade) using a simple "dpkg -i" command. This also simplifies debian/rules by removing arch (in)dependent cleanups during installation. We have the mercurial binary Breaks: and Replaces: mercurial-common so that the latter will be removed upon upgrade. Also note the change from "override_dh_install" to "override_dh_auto_install" in debian/rules: this is because we do not want "make install" to be run automatically as we need the --install-layout=deb of "setup.py install" (otherwise, files would end up in $DESTDIR/usr/local).

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.
