lfs: don't automatically exclude '.hg*' files from external tracking The only reasons I did this in the first place was because tracking externally seems like it would always be a mistake, and the eol extension does the same thing. Yuya and Jun thought it might be better to not do this[1], so I'll defer to them on this. If a problem with say, .hgtags or .hgeol does arise, it can be added back without breaking existing repos.

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
