status: don't crash if a lookup file disappears This can happen if another process (even another hg process!) comes along and removes the file at that time. This partly resolves issue5584, but not completely -- a bogus dirstate update can still happen. However, the full fix is too involved for stable.

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.
