record: refactor the prompt loop The previous loop was iterating over a mixed header/hunk stream. It may have been more generic in the sense every item in the stream could trigger a prompt but it required more work to skip items properly. It can be rewritten in a more intuitive way by looping on files then looping on hunks.

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.
