commands.import: accept a prefix option The --prefix option is meant to be relative to the root rather than the current working directory. This is for consistency with the rest of 'hg import' -- paths in patches are otherwise considered to be relative to the root. In upcoming patches we'll hook this option up to the patch functions. --exact with --prefix is currently disallowed because I can't really come up with sensible semantics for it, especially when only part of the patch is preserved.

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.
