This makes it possible to have conditional sections like:

#if windows
  $ echo foo
  foo
#else
  $ echo bar
  bar
#endif

The directives and skipped sections are treated like comments, so don't
interleave them with commands and their output.

The parameters to #if are evaluated while preparing the test by passing them
over to hghave. Requirements can thus be negated with 'no-' prefix, and
multiple requirements must all be true to return true.

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
