mercurial

The testsuite is run on build.

Some tests fail when run as root (e.g. test-obsolete.t that rely on file permissions).

To manually run a single test:

cd tests/
./run-tests.py test-patchbomb.t

# or:
make test-patchbomb.t

To extract a full patch from a mercurial working directory, typically to backport it:

hg export -r <revision>
