record: make the m key open an editor for the commit message (issue5667) With the former crecord extension, the user could edit the commit message while he was de-/selecting hunks. By pressing 'm', an editor showed up to edit the commit message. With record being part of mercurial, this feature is not available anymore. However, the help text still mentions it. As the infrastructure needed is still present, this feature is quite easily ported from the crecord extension to mercurial. It seems there is no test coverage for record ui, so I tested this patch manually on my local machine.

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
