hook: add support for disabling the shell to native command translation I think having it on by default is the right thing to do, but this is an escape hatch if someone has a command that shouldn't be mangled. The inspiration is the priority prefix. The translation does nothing on non Windows platforms, so the default value is selected to avoid printing a useless note by default.

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.
