patch: stop changing current directory before patching _applydiff() patcher argument was added to help hgsubversion like extension monkeypatching the patching process. While it could be removed at this point, I prefer to leave it until patch.py is completely refactored and there is a valid and tested alternative.

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.
