test-gendoc: add tests for all languages This ensures that we catch errors in the reST syntax early and for all languages. The only change needed in gendoc.py was to correct the computation of section underlines for Asian languages.

SYNOPSIS
--------
**hg** *command* [*option*]... [*argument*]...

DESCRIPTION
-----------
The **hg** command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial
system.

COMMAND ELEMENTS
----------------

files...
    indicates one or more filename or relative path filenames; see
    "FILE NAME PATTERNS" for information on pattern matching

path
    indicates a path on the local machine

revision
    indicates a changeset which can be specified as a changeset

FILES
-----

``.hgignore``
    This file contains regular expressions (one per line) that
    describe file names that should be ignored by **hg**. For details,
    see |hgignore(5)|_.

``.hgtags``
    This file contains changeset hash values and text tag names (one
    of each separated by spaces) that correspond to tagged versions of
    the repository contents.

``/etc/mercurial/hgrc``, ``$HOME/.hgrc``, ``.hg/hgrc``
    This file contains defaults and configuration. Values in
    ``.hg/hgrc`` override those in ``$HOME/.hgrc``, and these override
    settings made in the global ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` configuration.
    See |hgrc(5)|_ for details of the contents and format of these
    files.

Some commands (e.g. revert) produce backup files ending in ``.orig``,
if the ``.orig`` file already exists and is not tracked by Mercurial,
it will be overwritten.

BUGS
----
Probably lots, please post them to the mailing list (See Resources
below) when you find them.
