context: stop catching TypeError when converting hex nodeid to binary It has been a programming error to pass a 40-character string that is not a hex nodeid since 8b86acc7aa64 (context: drop support for looking up context by ambiguous changeid (API), 2018-04-28), so we can just let it raise a TypeError.

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.
