import-checker: allow symbol imports from mercurial.pycompat Currently, the source transformer inserts `from mercurial.pycompat import delattr, getattr, hasattr, setattr, open, unicode` to the top of every file. As part of getting rid of the source transformer, we'll need to have source code call these wrappers directly. Rather than rewrite all call sites to call pycompat.*, I think it makes sense to import needed symbols via explicit imports. That requires loosening the import checker to allow this.

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.
