test-rebase-interruptions: stabilize for Windows External hooks end up launching cmd.exe, which knows nothing about $VAR syntax. For some reason, I thought that Mercurial would substitute in the value, in order to paper over the platform difference.

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.
