merge: give hint as to how to discover uncommitted changes

Many users will try 'hg diff' here, and it will not show them missing files.

import os, sys
from mercurial import hg, ui

TESTDIR = os.environ["TESTDIR"]

# only makes sense to test on os which supports symlinks
if not hasattr(os, "symlink"):
    sys.exit(80) # SKIPPED_STATUS defined in run-tests.py

# this is what symlink would do on a non-symlink file system
def symlink_failure(src, dst):
    raise OSError, (1, "Operation not permitted")
os.symlink = symlink_failure

# now try cloning a repo which contains symlinks
u = ui.ui()
hg.clone(u, os.path.join(TESTDIR, 'test-no-symlinks.hg'), 'test1')
