Environment variables are not visible by default
$ PATTERN='t4' hg log -r '.' -T "{ifcontains('PATTERN', envvars, 'yes', 'no')}\n"
no
Environment variable visibility can be explicit

Test behavior of output when directory structure does not already exist
$ mkdir foo

$ hg add foo/a
$ hg commit -qm "add foo/a"
$ hg cat --output "output/%p" foo/a
