convert: Work around p4 instability (issue2465) The p4 command-line client sometimes fails upon doing "p4 describe" when trying to produce a patch. (I'm guessing it's a bug in p4.) However, "hg convert" doesn't even make use of the patch, and it can be elided by adding "-s" to the p4 command line here.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
