py3: use email parser that operates on bytes email.parser.Parser() operates on str in both Python 2 and 3. Python 3.2 introduced the email.parser.BytesParser(), which works like Parser except it accepts bytes. We implement the pycompat helper as a function so we lazily import the "email" module.

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.
