manifest: use 't' for tree manifest flag We currently use 'd' to indicate that a manifest entry is a directory. Let's switch to 't', since that's not a valid hex digit and therefore easier to spot in the raw manifest data. This will break any existing repos with tree manifests, but it's still an experimental feature and there are probably only a few test repos in existence with 'd' flags.

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
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
