setup: use the full executable manifest from `python.exe` The manifest embedded by the build process (before the string here is added) already accounts for the `<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" ...>` setting. (Note that the PyOxidizer build is missing this, so it will likely trigger the UAC escalation prompt on each run.) However, using `mt.exe` to merge the fragment with what is already in the manifest seems to strip all whitespace, making it unreadable. Since Mercurial can be run via `python.exe`, it makes sense that we would have the same manifest settings (like the supported OS list), though I'm unaware of any functionality this enables. It also has the nice effect of making the content readable from a resource editor. The manifest comes from python 3.9.12. Note that this seems to strip the `<?xml ... ?>` declaration when viewed with ResourceHacker 5.1.7, but this was also the state of things with the previous commit, and `mt.exe "-inputresource:hg.exe;#1" -out:extracted` does contain the declaration and the BOM in both cases. No idea why this differs from other executables.

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.
