posix: move checkexec test file to .hg/cache This avoids unnecessary churn in the working directory. It is not necessarily a fully valid assumption that .hg/cache is on the same filesystem as the working directory, but I think it is an acceptable approximation. It could also be the case that different parts of the working directory is on different mount points so checking in the root folder could also be wrong.

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.
