osx: delay version computation on macOS builds Before this patch, HGVER would be evaluated at the beginning of the make execution, and would be unset because build/mercurial/ doesn't exist yet at that point. Now we compute the version after the `make install` run has completed. This is backported to stable from 8626b44516c1, but that revision had an error in the shell invocation syntax.

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.
