update: teach hg to override untracked dir with a tracked file on update
This is a fix to an old problem when Mercurial got confused by an
untracked folder with the same name as one of the files in a commit
hg was trying to update to. It is pretty safe to remove this folder if
it is empty. Backing up an empty folder seems to go against Mercurial's
"don't track dirs" philosophy.
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.
