setup: add extra logic to try and recommend a new pip on bad Python Modern pip can detect supported Python versions (which we now declare), and pull down a reasonable release. This trick was suggested in http://bit.ly/pycon2017-build-bridges, and seems like a good defensive maneuver so that when we want to move to Python 3 it's less risky for existing users. This moves the version-check logic after defining our printf function so we can print more informative messages.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
