worker: raise exception instead of calling sys.exit() with child's code...
worker: raise exception instead of calling sys.exit() with child's code When a worker process returns an error code, we would call `sys.exit()` with that exit code on the main process. The `SystemExit` exception would then get caught in `scmutil.callcatch()`, which would return that error code. The comment there says "Commands shouldn't sys.exit directly", which I agree with. This patch changes it so we raise a specific exception when a worker fails so we can catch instead. I think that means that `SystemExit` is now always an internal error. (I had earlier thought that this call to `sys.exit()` was from within the child process until Matt Harbison made me look again, so thanks for that!)

cHg
===

A fast client for Mercurial command server running on Unix.

Install:

$ make
$ make install

Usage:

$ chg help # show help of Mercurial
$ alias hg=chg # replace hg command
$ chg --kill-chg-daemon # terminate background server

Environment variables:

Although cHg tries to update environment variables, some of them cannot be
changed after spawning the server. The following variables are specially
handled:

* configuration files are reloaded automatically by default.
* CHGHG or HG specifies the path to the hg executable spawned as the
background command server.

The following variables are available for testing:

* CHGDEBUG enables debug messages.
* CHGSOCKNAME specifies the socket path of the background cmdserver.
* CHGTIMEOUT specifies how many seconds chg will wait before giving up
connecting to a cmdserver. If it is 0, chg will wait forever. Default: 60

Build environment variables:

* HGPATH: the path to the hg executable to call when CHGHG and HG are not set,
instead of "hg"
* HGPATHREL=1: when CHGHG and HG are not set, the hg executable will be ./hg
relative to the chg executable. Only works on linux, falls back to "hg"
otherwise.
