Mercurial and Windows

[Michael Sperber]

I those who build from source probably want to do something like this:

hg init xemacs
cd xemacs
hg pull http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta

(rather than "hg clone") and then add the following to xemacs/.hg/hgrc:

[extensions]
hgext.win32text=
[encode]
**.{1,el,h,html,txt,tex,texi} = dumbencode:
**/{ChangeLog,README} = dumbencode:
[decode]
**.{1,el,h,html,txt,tex,texi} = dumbdecode:
**/{ChangeLog,README} = dumbdecode:

This sets up CRLF conversion for the specified files.  This is
documented here:

http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/Win32Extension

Only *then* do:

hg update

Note I haven't actually tried this myself---I would appreciate if you
could report to me if you try this.
