tags: show how hg behaves if a tags cache entry is truncated I'm seeing an error of this form in production on the order of once a month. I'm not sure how it happens, but I suspect interrupting a pull might result in half written cache entries. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8094

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 https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
