subrepo: support Git being named "git.cmd" on Windows (issue3173) Popen does not consider "foo.cmd" equivalent to "foo" on Windows. Unfortunately, the default MSYS Git installation installs only "git.cmd" into the path by default. This patch probes for both possible names on Windows.

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
