blackbox: do not translate the log messages

User 'timeless' in irc mentioned that having the blackbox be
translated would result in logs that:

- may be mixed language, if multiple users use the same repo
- are not google searchable (since searching for english gives more
  results)
- might not be readable by an admin if the employee is using hg in
  his native language

And therefore we should log everything in english.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
