run-tests: test result shows when a failed test could not start a server
Failing to start a server happens regularly, at least on windows buildbot.
Such a failure often has nothing to do with the test, but with the environment.
But half the test output can change because some data is missing. Therefore this
is worth an extended error message.
Detect the server failure in the diff output because it is most reliable
there. Checking the output only does not show if the server failure was
expected.
Old failure message when server start failed:
Failed test-serve.t: output changed
New message:
Failed test-serve.t: serve failed and output changed

Some commands allow the user to specify a date, e.g.: - backout, commit, import, tag: Specify the commit date. - log, revert, update: Select revision(s) by date. Many date formats are valid. Here are some examples: - ``Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006`` (local timezone assumed) - ``Dec 6 13:18 -0600`` (year assumed, time offset provided) - ``Dec 6 13:18 UTC`` (UTC and GMT are aliases for +0000) - ``Dec 6`` (midnight) - ``13:18`` (today assumed) - ``3:39`` (3:39AM assumed) - ``3:39pm`` (15:39) - ``2006-12-06 13:18:29`` (ISO 8601 format) - ``2006-12-6 13:18`` - ``2006-12-6`` - ``12-6`` - ``12/6`` - ``12/6/6`` (Dec 6 2006) - ``today`` (midnight) - ``yesterday`` (midnight) - ``now`` - right now Lastly, there is Mercurial's internal format: - ``1165411109 0`` (Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006 UTC) This is the internal representation format for dates. The first number is the number of seconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00 UTC). The second is the offset of the local timezone, in seconds west of UTC (negative if the timezone is east of UTC). The log command also accepts date ranges: - ``<DATE`` - at or before a given date/time - ``>DATE`` - on or after a given date/time - ``DATE to DATE`` - a date range, inclusive - ``-DAYS`` - within a given number of days of today
