patchbomb: don't close unused progress topic The "writing" topic has not been used since 1830d0cc4bc1 (patchbomb: minor refactoring of mbox functionality, preparing for move, 2011-11-23). Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D3803

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
