strip: do not include obsolescence markers for the temporary bundle When stripping, we need to put all non-stripped revisions "above" the stripped ones in a "temporary-bundle" while we strip the targets revision. Then we reapply that bundle to restore these non-stripped revisions (with a new revision numbers). We skip the inclusion of obsolescence markers in that bundle. This is safe since all obsmarkers we plan to strip will be backed-up in the strip backup bundle. Including the markers would create issue in some case were we try to strip a prune markers that is "relevant" to a revision in the "temporary-bundle". (note: we do not strip obsmarkers yet)

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.
