test-dispatch: stabilize the test When cwd is removed and `hg` is executed, some shells may run `getcwd` before forking and executing, some may not do it, some may print a different error message. The test should be shell-independent so let's just avoid checking the error message. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D1282

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.
