hghave: change ssl check to just check ssl module...
hghave: change ssl check to just check ssl module Previously, the "ssl" check effectively looked for PyOpenSSL or Python 2.7.9. After this patch, we simply look for just the "ssl" module. After d962e955da08, there have been no references to PyOpenSSL in the tree (the previous usage of PyOpenSSL was to implement ssl support on old, no longer supported Python versions that didn't have an ssl module (e.g. Python 2.4). So, the check for PyOpenSSL served no purpose. Pythons we support ship with the ssl module. Although it may not be available in all installations. So, we still need the check for whether the ssl module imports, hence the hghave check. The main side-effect of this change is that we now run test-https.t (the only test requiring the "ssl" hghave feature) on Python <2.7.9 when PyOpenSSL is not installed (which is probably most installations) and the ssl module is available. Before, we wouldn't run this test on these older Python versions. I confirmed that test-https.t passes with Python 2.6.9 and 2.7.8 on OS X 10.11.

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.
