hgext: start building a library for simple hooks

Many workflows depend on hooks to enforce certain policies, e.g. to
prevent forced pushes. The Mercurial Guide includes some cases and
Google can help finding others, but it can save users a lot of time
if hg itself has a couple of examples for further customization.

# extdiff will set the parent and child to a single file if there is
# only one change. If there are multiple changes, directories will be
# set. diff(1) does not cope particularly with directories; instead we
# do the recursion ourselves and diff each file individually.

if not{
	# extdiff will create a snapshot of the working copy to prevent
	# conflicts during the diff. We circumvent this behavior by
	# diffing against the repository root to produce plumbable
	# output. This is antisocial.
	for(f in `{sort -u <{getfiles $1} <{getfiles $2}}){
		file1=$1/$f; test -f $file1 || file1=/dev/null
		file2=$3/$f; test -f $file2 || file2=/dev/null
		diff $opts $file1 $file2
