"dates|Date Formats":
r'''
Some commands (backout, commit, tag) allow the user to specify a date.
Many date formats are acceptible. 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)
"2006-12-6 13:18:29" (ISO 8601 format)
"2006-12-6 13:18"
"2006-12-6"
"12-6"
"12/6"
"12/6/6" (Dec 6 2006)
Lastly, there is Mercurial's internal format:
"1165432709 0" (Wed Dec 6 13:18:29 2006 UTC)
This is the internal representation format for dates. unixtime is
the number of seconds since the epoch (1970-01-01 00:00 UTC). offset
is the offset of the local timezone, in seconds west of UTC (negative
if the timezone is east of UTC).

r'''
HGEDITOR::
This is the name of the editor to use when committing. Defaults to the
value of EDITOR.
(deprecated, use .hgrc)
HGENCODING::
This overrides the default locale setting detected by Mercurial.
This setting is used to convert data including usernames,
changeset descriptions, tag names, and branches. This setting can
be overridden with the --encoding command-line option.
HGENCODINGMODE::
This sets Mercurial's behavior for handling unknown characters
while transcoding user inputs. The default is "strict", which
causes Mercurial to abort if it can't translate a character. Other
settings include "replace", which replaces unknown characters, and
"ignore", which drops them. This setting can be overridden with
the --encodingmode command-line option.
HGMERGE::
An executable to use for resolving merge conflicts. The program
will be executed with three arguments: local file, remote file,
ancestor file.
The default program is "hgmerge", which is a shell script provided
by Mercurial with some sensible defaults.
(deprecated, use .hgrc)
HGRCPATH::
A list of files or directories to search for hgrc files. Item
separator is ":" on Unix, ";" on Windows. If HGRCPATH is not set,
platform default search path is used. If empty, only .hg/hgrc of
current repository is read.
For each element in path, if a directory, all entries in directory
ending with ".rc" are added to path. Else, element itself is
added to path.
HGUSER::
This is the string used for the author of a commit.
(deprecated, use .hgrc)
EMAIL::
If HGUSER is not set, this will be used as the author for a commit.
LOGNAME::
If neither HGUSER nor EMAIL is set, LOGNAME will be used (with
'@hostname' appended) as the author value for a commit.
EDITOR::
This is the name of the editor used in the hgmerge script. It will be
used for commit messages if HGEDITOR isn't set. Defaults to 'vi'.
PYTHONPATH::
This is used by Python to find imported modules and may need to be set
appropriately if Mercurial is not installed system-wide.

"patterns|File Name Patterns": r'''
Mercurial accepts several notations for identifying one or more
files at a time.
By default, Mercurial treats filenames as shell-style extended
glob patterns.
Alternate pattern notations must be specified explicitly.
To use a plain path name without any pattern matching, start a
name with "path:". These path names must match completely, from
the root of the current repository.
To use an extended glob, start a name with "glob:". Globs are
rooted at the current directory; a glob such as "*.c" will match
files ending in ".c" in the current directory only.
The supported glob syntax extensions are "**" to match any string
across path separators, and "{a,b}" to mean "a or b".
To use a Perl/Python regular expression, start a name with "re:".
Regexp pattern matching is anchored at the root of the repository.
Plain examples:
path:foo/bar a name bar in a directory named foo in the root of
the repository
path:path:name a file or directory named "path:name"
Glob examples:
glob:*.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory
*.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory
**.c any name ending in ".c" in the current directory, or
any subdirectory
foo/*.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo
foo/**.c any name ending in ".c" in the directory foo, or any
subdirectory
Regexp examples:
re:.*\.c$ any name ending in ".c", anywhere in the repository
