upgrade: register all format variants in a list Now that all known format variants exists outside of the function, we can gather them in a lists. This build a single entry point other code can use (current target: extensions). The repository upgrade code is updated to simply use entries from this list. As a side effect this will also allow extensions to register their own format variants, to do this "properly" we should introduce a "registrar" for this category of object. However I prefer to keep this series simple, and that will be adventure for future time.

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
