errors: catch urllib errors specifically instead of using safehasattr() Before this patch, we would catch `IOError` and `OSError` and check if the instance had a `.code` member (indicates `HTTPError`) or a `.reason` member (indicates the more generic `URLError`). It seems to me that can simply catch those exception specifically instead, so that's what this code does. The existing code is from fbe8834923c5 (commands: report http exceptions nicely, 2005-06-17), so I suspect it's just that there was no `urllib2` (where `URLError` lives) back then. The old code mentioned `SSLError` in a comment. The new code does *not* try to catch that. The documentation for `ssl.SSLError` says that it has a `.reason` property, but `python -c 'import ssl; print(dir(ssl.SSLError("foo", Exception("bar"))))` doesn't mention that property on either Python 2 or Python 3 on my system. It also seems that `sslutil` is pretty careful about converting `ssl.SSLError` to `error.Abort`. It also is carefult to not assume that instances of the exception have a `.reason`. So I at least don't want to catch `ssl.SSLError` and handle it the same way as `URLError` because that would likely result in a crash. I also wonder if we don't need to handle it at all (because `sslutil` might handle all the cases). It's now early in the release cycle, so perhaps we can just see how it goes?

Mercurial for Plan 9 from Bell Labs
===================================
This directory contains support for Mercurial on Plan 9 from Bell Labs
platforms. It is assumed that the version of Python running on these
systems supports the ANSI/POSIX Environment (APE). At the time of this
writing, the bichued/python port is the most commonly installed version
of Python on these platforms. If a native port of Python is ever made,
some minor modification will need to be made to support some of the more
esoteric requirements of the platform rather than those currently made
(cf. posix.py).
By default, installations will have the factotum extension enabled; this
extension permits factotum(4) to act as an authentication agent for
HTTP repositories. Additionally, an extdiff command named 9diff is
enabled which generates diff(1) compatible output suitable for use with
the plumber(4).
Commit messages are plumbed using E if no editor is defined; users must
update the plumbed file to continue, otherwise the hg process must be
interrupted.
Some work remains with regard to documentation. Section 5 manual page
references for hgignore and hgrc need to be re-numbered to section 6 (file
formats) and a new man page writer should be written to support the
Plan 9 man macro set. Until these issues can be resolved, manual pages
are elided from the installation.
Basic install:
% mk install # do a system-wide install
% hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
% hg # see help
A proto(2) file is included in this directory as an example of how a
binary distribution could be packaged, ostensibly with contrib(1).
See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
