doc: improves merge-tools example with an overwrite of existing config We highlight the fact that a user hgrc can overwrite the system wide preconfiguration. As other benefit we show priority value other than 1 and shows vimdiff configuration is usually directly available. This is valuable as vimdiff is (surprisingly) a common request from user.

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
