doc: don't use mutable default arguments It appears our mutable default arguments checker doesn't find arguments not on the first line of a function definition :( The arguments aren't used, so the default value is irrelevant. I found this when blackening this script in a future commit. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D7445

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.
