localrepo: give a sigh of relief when getting lock after waiting for it A message like this was sometimes shown when pushing: remote: waiting for lock on repository foo held by 'mercurial:20858' That could scare users, making them wonder whether the push actually succeeded. To mitigate that fear, issue an additional "warning" such as: got lock after 2 seconds The return value from lock.lock.lock() was unused - instead we return the delay. This also adds the first test coverage for waiting for locks.

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.
