tests: add a substitution for ENOENT/ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND messages Automatic replacement seems better than trying to figure out a check-code rule. I didn't bother looking to see why the error message and file name is reversed in the annotate and histedit tests, based on Windows or not. I originally had this as a list of tuples, conditional on the platform. But there are a couple of 'No such file or directory' messages emitted by Mercurial itself, so unconditional is required for stability. There are also several variants of what I assume is 'connection refused' and 'unknown host' in test-clone.t and test-clonebundles.t for Docker, FreeBSD jails, etc. Yes, these are handled by (re) tags, but maybe it would be better to capture those strings in order to avoid whack-a-mole in future tests. All of this points to using a dictionary containing one or more strings-to-be-replaced values.

# Script to get stable diff output on any platform.

# Output of this script is almost equivalent to GNU diff with "-Nru".

# Use this script as "hg pdiff" via extdiff extension with preparation
# below in test scripts:

#   $ cat >> $HGRCPATH <<EOF
#   > [extdiff]
#   > pdiff = sh "$RUNTESTDIR/pdiff"
#   > EOF
