cmdserver: write early exception to 'e' channel in 'unix' mode In 'unix' mode, the server is typically detached from the console. Therefore a client couldn't see the exception that occurred while instantiating the server object. This patch tries to catch the early error and send it to 'e' channel even if the server isn't instantiated yet. This means the error may be sent before the initial hello message. So it's up to the client implementation whether to handle the early error message or error out as protocol violation. The error handling code is also copied to chgserver.py. I'll factor out them later if we manage to get chg passes the test suite.

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.
