hg: write narrow patterns after repo creation Now that hg.clone() knows when a narrow clone is requested, it makes sense to have it update the narrow patterns for the repo soon after the repo is created, before any exchange occurs. Previously, the narrow extension was monkeypatching an exchange function to do this. The old code is redundant and has been removed. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4541

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.
