filemerge: use a single temp dir instead of temp files This can help to remove the clutter from UIs that display just the filenames; instead of seeing foo~local.C9ru9r.txt and foo~base.2DMV22.txt (in the /tmp directory on most platforms), we create a single new directory and use that, producing filenames like /tmp/hgmerge.C9ru9r/foo~local.txt.

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see:

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).
