diff: add a fast path to avoid loading binary contents When diffing binary contents, with certain configs, we can show "Binary file <name> has changed" without actual content. That allows a fast path where we could avoid providing actual binary contents. Note: in that case we still need to test if two contents are the same, that's done by using "filectx.cmp", which could have its own fast path.

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.
