compression: display compression level in debugformat Now that we have options to control the compression level, we teach `hg debugformat` about them. This is a useful information when comparing repositories. Note that we have no trace of the compression level used to store existing deltas. Actually, it would even varies from one delta to another. So we display the currently set value.

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.
