chgserver: create new process group after fork (issue5051)...
chgserver: create new process group after fork (issue5051) This is to make SIGTSTP work. Before the patch, the server process group is considered "orphaned" and will ignore SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN, SIGTTOU, according to POSIX. See the comment above `will_become_orphaned_pgrp` in `kernel/exit.c` from Linux 4.3 for details. SIGTSTP is important if chgserver runs some ncurses commend like `commit -i`. Ncurses has its own SIGTSTP handler which will do the following: 1. Clean the screen 2. Stop itself by resending SIGTSTP to itself 3. Restore the screen If SIGTSTP is ignored, step 2 will be a noop, which means the process cannot be suspended properly. In order to make things work, chg client needs to forward SIGTSTP and SIGCONT to server as well.

Mercurial has the ability to add new features through the use of
extensions. Extensions may add new commands, add options to
existing commands, change the default behavior of commands, or
implement hooks.
To enable the "foo" extension, either shipped with Mercurial or in the
Python search path, create an entry for it in your configuration file,
like this::
[extensions]
foo =
You may also specify the full path to an extension::
[extensions]
myfeature = ~/.hgext/myfeature.py
See :hg:`help config` for more information on configuration files.
Extensions are not loaded by default for a variety of reasons:
they can increase startup overhead; they may be meant for advanced
usage only; they may provide potentially dangerous abilities (such
as letting you destroy or modify history); they might not be ready
for prime time; or they may alter some usual behaviors of stock
Mercurial. It is thus up to the user to activate extensions as
needed.
To explicitly disable an extension enabled in a configuration file of
broader scope, prepend its path with !::
[extensions]
# disabling extension bar residing in /path/to/extension/bar.py
bar = !/path/to/extension/bar.py
# ditto, but no path was supplied for extension baz
baz = !
