util: check for compression engine availability before returning If a requested compression engine is registered but not available, requesting it will now abort. To be honest, I'm not sure if this is the appropriate mechanism for handling optional compression engines. I won't know until all uses of compression (bundles, wire protocol, revlogs, etc) are using the new API and zstd (our planned optional engine) is implemented. So this API could change.

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.
