repo: look up nullrev context by revnum, not symbolic name I think lookup of the 'null' symbol should be done via scmutil.revsymbol() and repo['null'] is only supported for historical reasons. However, repo[nullrev] is fine, so we can switch to that instead of switching to scmutil.revsymbol('null'). Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D4780

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.
