minifileset: note the unsupported file pattern when raising a parse error This was useful in debugging, because I stupidly quoted it out of habit from the command line. This isn't a great example that clearly shows the problem, but I don't know how to improve it. The problem *is* obvious once a complex statement or a clearly bogus string is used.

Our full contribution guidelines are in our wiki, please see:

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
