revert: always show relative path to .orig backup This helps make some future patches easier when I replace origpath() by another function that works with repo-relative paths (origpath() works with cwd-relative paths). Always showing a relative path seems a little more user-friendly and is more consistent between configured ui.origbackuppath and not. OTOH, it's annoying if ui.origbackuppath is far outside the repo. This is just --verbose output, so I don't think it's worth spending much time on (I've already wasted too many hours on it). Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5871

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.
