obsolescence: add test for the "branch replacement" logic during push, case D2
Mercurial checks for the introduction of new heads on push. Evolution comes
into play to detect if existing branches on the server are being replaced by
some of the new one we push.
The current code for this logic is very basic (eg: issue4354) and was poorly
tested. We have a better implementation coming in the evolve extension fixing
these issues and with more serious tests coverage. In the process of upstreaming
this improved logic, we start with adding the test case that are already passing
with the current implementation. Once they are all in, we'll upstream the better
implementation and the extra test cases.
See inline documentation for details about the test case added in this
changeset.

Mercurial for Plan 9 from Bell Labs =================================== This directory contains support for Mercurial on Plan 9 from Bell Labs platforms. It is assumed that the version of Python running on these systems supports the ANSI/POSIX Environment (APE). At the time of this writing, the bichued/python port is the most commonly installed version of Python on these platforms. If a native port of Python is ever made, some minor modification will need to be made to support some of the more esoteric requirements of the platform rather than those currently made (cf. posix.py). By default, installations will have the factotum extension enabled; this extension permits factotum(4) to act as an authentication agent for HTTP repositories. Additionally, an extdiff command named 9diff is enabled which generates diff(1) compatible output suitable for use with the plumber(4). Commit messages are plumbed using E if no editor is defined; users must update the plumbed file to continue, otherwise the hg process must be interrupted. Some work remains with regard to documentation. Section 5 manual page references for hgignore and hgrc need to be re-numbered to section 6 (file formats) and a new man page writer should be written to support the Plan 9 man macro set. Until these issues can be resolved, manual pages are elided from the installation. Basic install: % mk install # do a system-wide install % hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup % hg # see help A proto(2) file is included in this directory as an example of how a binary distribution could be packaged, ostensibly with contrib(1). See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
