tests: handle string escaping/encoding on Python 3 This code was failing on Python 3 for a few reasons: 1) sys.argv is str and str doesn't have a .decode() 2) the "string_escape" encoding was renamed to "unicode_escape" It is wonky casting to bytes to str to bytes. But this is test code, so meh. I don't believe we exercise any code paths in these tests where the arguments aren't ascii. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5667

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
