tests: add tests for when stdout or stderr is connected to `os.devnull` The original motivation was that creating PTYs on Windows is not possible, but `NUL` is recognized as a TTY, so we can have at least some test coverage for the TTY case. I think it doesn’t hurt to run the test cases on all systems.

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.
