tests: restore workaround of obsolete warning from 3c9066ed557c

It's simple and works well unless you are using third-party extensions
that changes the store format.

# Invoke the system hg installation (rather than the local hg version being
# tested).
#
# We want to use the hg version being tested when interacting with the test
# repository, and the system hg when interacting with the mercurial source code
# repository.
#
# The mercurial source repository was typically orignally cloned with the
# system mercurial installation, and may require extensions or settings from
# the system installation.
syshg () {
    (
        syshgenv
        exec hg "$@"
    )
}

# Revert the environment so that running "hg" runs the system hg
# rather than the test hg installation.
syshgenv () {
    . "$HGTEST_RESTOREENV"
    HGPLAIN=1
    export HGPLAIN
}

# The test-repo is a live hg repository which may have evolution markers
# created, e.g. when a ~/.hgrc enabled evolution.
#
# Tests may be run using a custom HGRCPATH, which do not enable evolution
# markers by default.
#
# If test-repo includes evolution markers, and we do not enable evolution
# markers, hg will occasionally complain when it notices them, which disrupts
# tests resulting in sporadic failures.
#
# Since we aren't performing any write operations on the test-repo, there's
# no harm in telling hg that we support evolution markers, which is what the
# following lines for the hgrc file do:
cat >> "$HGRCPATH" << EOF
[experimental]
evolution = createmarkers
EOF

# Most test-check-* sourcing this file run "hg files", which is not available
# in ancient versions of hg. So we double check if "syshg files" works and
# fallback to hg bundled in the repo.
syshg files -h >/dev/null 2>/dev/null
