run-tests: add support for using 127.0.0.1 as a glob Some systems don't have a 127/8 address for localhost (I noticed this on a FreeBSD jail). In order to work around this, use 127.0.0.1 as a glob pattern. A future commit will update needed output lines and add a requirement to check-code.py.

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.
