py3: use string for "close" value in commit extras The extras dict on commits has string keys and values. Before this commit, we passed "close" as an integer, which Python 2 gladly coerced to a string during a %s formatting in the bowels of changelog.py.

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.
