extensions: remove the inotify extension (BC) This extension has always had correctness issues and has been unmaintained for years. It is now removed in favor of the third-party hgwatchman which is maintained and appears to be correct. Users with inotify enabled in their config files will fall back to standard status performance.

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.
