Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool for software developers.

See https://mercurial-scm.org/ for detailed installation instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
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.
