merge: suggest 'hg up -C .' for discarding changes, not 'hg up -C' Without specifying the parent revision of the working copy, users will update to tip, which is most likely the other head they were trying to merge, not the revision they were at before the merge.

Mercurial's documentation is kept in reStructuredText format, which is
a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html

It's also convertible to a variety of other formats including standard
UNIX man page format and HTML. You'll need to install Docutils:

  http://docutils.sourceforge.net/

Use the Makefile in this directory to generate the man and HTML pages.
