commit: remove special handling of IOError (actually dead code)
In the past, IOError was used to mark a file as removed. The differentiation
between OSError and IOError in this place was introduced in e553a425751d, to
avoid that “normal” OSErrors / IOErrors accidentally mark files as removed.
This weird internal API was removed in 650b5b6e75ed. It seems like that
changeset should have removed the differentiation, at least I don’t see any
reason for keeping it.
On Python 3, OSError and IOError are aliased. Therefore the removed code was
actually dead.

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. Notes for packagers =================== Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported configuration.
