help: add topic about evolution, based on text from evolve extension I've taken the text produced by `hg help evolution` when the evolve extension is enabled and made that available by the same command with just hg core. Changes I've made: * Added "(EXPERIMENTAL)" to the title. (That doesn't hide the topic from `hg help`, though.) * Replaced old-style `experimental.evolution=<names>` config by new-style `experimental.evolution.<name>=true`. * Replaces a "obsolete markers" by "obsolescence markers". * Removed most content from "Current feature status". When the evolve extension is enabled, its help text takes precedence. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D10516

Mercurial

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool for software developers.

Basic install:

$ make            # see install targets
$ make install    # do a system-wide install
$ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
$ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

$ make local      # build for inplace usage
$ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.

Notes for packagers

Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported configuration.
