win32: specify _CREATE_NO_WINDOW on spawndetached() Before this change, a console window briefly popped up on "hg serve -d" and disappeared again, stealing the focus window (which was very annyoing when running tests). Specifying _CREATE_NO_WINDOW instead of _DETACHED_PROCESS fixes this (as tested on Windows 7 x64).

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
