copies: handle more cases where a file got replaced by a copy This patch fixes the changeset-centric version in a pretty straight-forward way. It fixes it to automatically resolve the conflict, which is better than resulting in a modify/delete conflict as it was before b4057d001760 (merge: when rename was made on both sides, use ancestor as merge base, 2020-01-22). I'll leave it for later to test and explicitly handle cases where files have been renamed to the same target on different sides of the merge.

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.
