server: always close http socket if responding with an error (issue6033) It's possible for hgweb to respond _very_ early with an error if we're catching certain types of errors. When we do, we need to tell the client the socket is toast when there's a POST involved because otherwise there can be lingering POST data on the socket that will confuse any future requests on the socket. This manifested as a flaky failure on Linux in an lfs extension test and a reliable failure on FreeBSD. With this patch applied, test-lfs-serve-access.t now passes for me on FreeBSD.

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.
