destutil: remove current head from list of candidates early While 'hg merge' will refuse to pick a default destination if the working copy is not on a head, this will be a common and valid case for rebase. In this case, we will need to exclude from the candidate destination all descendants from the rebased set. We make a step forward in that direction by removing parents of the working copy from the candidate destinations instead of manually filtering the working copy parent at the end of the process. This will make the extra step of filtering descendant much simpler in a future changeset.

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:

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