ci: skip doctests on older branches

We either need to install and use newer system hg that supports zstd revlog
compression, or we can skip doctests because usually there are other tests that
cover the same code (e.g. by testing the relevant commands).

Doc is generated with sphinx.

You can generate the doc with:

```
make
```

# Tutorials

For updating the tutorials, you need to have the docgraph extension installed
(https://pypi.python.org/pypi/hg-docgraph).

Then run the test-topic-tutorial.t and test-tutorial.t to update the output if
needed.

You'll need the dot binary (likely installed by the graphviz package in your
package manager) in order to have graphviz graphs rendered in the html output.

Simply run make in the docs directory should takes care of the conversion of
the tutorial .t files into .rst files. Then sphinx should do the rest of the
jobs by rendering graphviz graphs.
