hgweb: add a "URL breadcrumb" to the index and repository pages The purpose of this change is to make it much easier to navigate up the repository tree when the hg web server is used to serve more than one repository. A "URL breadcrumb" is a path where each of the path items can be clicked to go to the corresponding path page. This lets you go up the folder hierarchy very quickly. For example, when showing the list of repositories in http://myserver/myteams/myprojects, the following "breadcrumb" will be shown: Mercurial > myteams > myprojects Clicking on "myprojects" reloads the page. Clicking on "myteams" goes up one folder. Clicking on the leftmost "Mercurial" goes to the server root. This "breadcrumb" also appears on all repository pages. For example on the summary page of the repository at http://myserver/myteams/myprojects/myrepo the following will be shown: Mercurial > myteams > myprojects > myrepo / summary This change has been applied to all templates that already had a link to the main repository page (i.e. gitweb, monoblue, paper and coal) plus to the index page of the spartan template. In order to make the breadcumb links stand out the some of the template styles have been customized.

Mercurial's default format for showing changes between two versions of
a file is compatible with the unified format of GNU diff, which can be
used by GNU patch and many other standard tools.
While this standard format is often enough, it does not encode the
following information:
- executable status and other permission bits
- copy or rename information
- changes in binary files
- creation or deletion of empty files
Mercurial also supports the extended diff format from the git VCS
which addresses these limitations. The git diff format is not produced
by default because a few widespread tools still do not understand this
format.
This means that when generating diffs from a Mercurial repository
(e.g. with :hg:`export`), you should be careful about things like file
copies and renames or other things mentioned above, because when
applying a standard diff to a different repository, this extra
information is lost. Mercurial's internal operations (like push and
pull) are not affected by this, because they use an internal binary
format for communicating changes.
To make Mercurial produce the git extended diff format, use the --git
option available for many commands, or set 'git = True' in the [diff]
section of your configuration file. You do not need to set this option
when importing diffs in this format or using them in the mq extension.
