bookmarks: rename readcurrent to readactive (API) Today, the terms 'active' and 'current' are interchangeably used throughout the codebase in reference to the active bookmark (the bookmark that will be updated with the next commit). This leads to confusion among developers and users. This patch is part of a series to standardize the usage to 'active' throughout the mercurial codebase and user interface.

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
