inotify: don't fall over just because of a dangling symlink Previously, the inotify server failed to start if .hg/inotify.sock was a symlink that pointed to a non-existent path. This behaviour does not seem to make any sense. Now, if we encounter a broken symlink, we unlink it and continue.

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 http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
