config: add a function to insert non-file based, but overridable settings This will be used in the next patch. Until relatively recently (473510bf0575), there was no official way for extensions to inject per-repo config data, so it probably makes sense that `ui.setconfig()` items are sticky, and not affected by loading more config files. But that makes it cumbersome if the extension wants to allow the data it might add to be overridden by any data in the local hgrc file. The only thing I could get to work was to load the local hgrc first, and then check if the source for the config item that should be overridden was *not* the local hgrc file name. But that's brittle because in addition to the file name, the source contains the line number, there are the usual '\' vs '/' platform differences, etc. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7933

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
