tests: stabilize test-inherit-mode.t on FreeBSD and macOS (issue6026) Symbolic links are funny permissions-wise, but on the linked issue Yuya has convinced me that we can ignore this permissions issue on macOS (FreeBSD allows setting permissions bits but ignores them) and we'll be in fine shape.

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.
