pager: set some environment variables if they're not set Git did this already [1] [2]. We want this behavior too [3]. This provides a better default user experience (like, supporting colors) if users have things like "PAGER=less" set, which is not uncommon. The environment variables are provided by a method so extensions can override them on demand.

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).
