amend: error out if the note is greater than 255bytes In obsmarker we can't store keys and values of more than 255 bytes in metadata. If we try to do so, ProgrammingError is raised. The note flag to amend stores the note in obsmetadata. If a user will try to store a larger note, he will encounter ProgrammingError which is wrong. We must error out early. Thanks to Yuya for warning about this. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D1179

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.
