revsetbenchmark: automatically finds the perf extension Before this changeset, you had to stand in the root of the mercurial repo to run the `revsetbenchmark.py` script. Otherwise, the perf extension would not be found a `./contrib/perf.py` and the script would crash in panic. We now figure out the contrib directory from the location of this script. This makes it possible to run the script from other location that the mercurial repo root (but you still need to be in the core mercurial repository)

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
