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.
Notes for packagers
Mercurial ships a copy of the python-zstandard sources. This is used to provide support for zstd compression and decompression functionality. The module is not intended to be replaced by the plain python-zstandard nor is it intended to use a system zstd library. Patches can result in hard to diagnose errors and are explicitly discouraged as unsupported configuration.
FAQs

We found that mercurial demonstrated a healthy version release cadence and project activity because the last version was released less than a year ago. It has 7 open source maintainers collaborating on the project.
