simplemerge: move conflict warning message to filemerge The current output for a failed merge with conflict markers looks something like: merging foo warning: conflicts during merge. merging foo incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark') merging bar warning: conflicts during merge. merging bar incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark') We're going to change the way merges are done to perform all premerges before all merges, so that the output above would look like: merging foo merging bar warning: conflicts during merge. merging foo incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark') warning: conflicts during merge. merging bar incomplete! (edit conflicts, then use 'hg resolve --mark') The 'warning: conflicts during merge' line has no context, so is pretty confusing. This patch will change the future output to: merging foo merging bar warning: conflicts while merging foo! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark') warning: conflicts while merging bar! (edit, then use 'hg resolve --mark') The hint on how to resolve the conflicts makes this a bit unwieldy, but solving that is tricky because we already hint that people run 'hg resolve' to retry unresolved merges. The 'hg resolve --mark' mostly applies to conflict marker based resolution.

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.
