tests: fix test-patch.t on pickier /bin/sh implementations FreeBSD sh(1) doesn't accept -d, so we weren't testing what we expected there. Let's just use a simple Python script instead. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D3620

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
