tests: do not change sys.path, it can break loading cext.parsers When running this tests with run-tests, the prefix would resolve mercurial.cext to the source tree and the attempt to load mercurial.cext.parsers would therefore fail since it doesn't exist in it. With the regular search path from run-tests, it is picked up from the temporary prefix correctly. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4910

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.
