templates: include all non-branch namespaces in default one-line summary
I left out branches and custom namespaces on purpose from D9252
because I figured that people like us (Google) who have custom
namespaces can also have custom configs. However, I just realized that
this makes everyone with the topic extension lose the topic they've
had in rebase output for a long time (ever since someone was nice
enough to add it in D741). Sorry about the churn.
The more generic template couldn't easily keep the "log.bookmark"
label in the template because the namespace is called "bookmarks"
(plural). That means that we can't be compatible with users' existing
configs for "log.bookmark", so I decided to change the labels to be in
a brand-new "oneline-summary" namespace.

Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant. To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable:: [pager] pager = less -FRX If no pager is set in the user or repository configuration, Mercurial uses the environment variable $PAGER. If $PAGER is not set, pager.pager from the default or system configuration is used. If none of these are set, a default pager will be used, typically `less` on Unix and `more` on Windows. .. container:: windows On Windows, `more` is not color aware, so using it effectively disables color. MSYS and Cygwin shells provide `less` as a pager, which can be configured to support ANSI color codes. See :hg:`help config.color.pagermode` to configure the color mode when invoking a pager. You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the pager.ignore list:: [pager] ignore = version, help, update To ignore global commands like :hg:`version` or :hg:`help`, you have to specify them in your user configuration file. To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command, you can use --pager=<value>: - use as needed: `auto`. - require the pager: `yes` or `on`. - suppress the pager: `no` or `off` (any unrecognized value will also work). To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set:: [ui] paginate = never which will prevent the pager from running.
