* New upstream release
  Major changes between Mercurial 0.9 and 0.9.1:

   New features:
   - You can now configure your 'hgweb' server to let remote users
     'push' changes over http.
   - You can now 'import' a patch in a mail message by saving the mail
     message, and importing it. This works for patches sent either
     inline or as attachments.
   - The 'diff' command now accepts '-rA:B' syntax as a synonym for
     '-r A -r B', and adds '-b' and '-B' options.

   New contributions and extensions:
   - The 'acl' extension lets you lock down parts of a repository
     against incoming changes
   - The 'extdiff' extension lets you run your favourite graphical
     change viewer
   - Comprehensive integration with the 'vim' editor
   - A restricted shell for 'ssh'-hosted repositories
   - An importer for 'darcs' repositories

   New hooks added:
   - 'preupdate' is run before an update or merge in the working
     directory.
   - 'update' is run after an update or merge in the working
     directory.

   Behaviour changes:
   - NOTE: Mercurial as installed by the Windows binary
     installer no longer performs automatic line-ending conversion for
     Unix/Linux compatibility. To re-enable this feature, edit your
     'mercurial.ini' file after you upgrade.
   - The Windows binary installer now automatically adds 'hg' to your
     '%PATH%'.
   - The 'backout' command now runs an editor by default, to let you
     modify the commit message for a backed-out changeset.
   - An earlier problem with parsing of tags has been fixed.
     This makes tag parsing slower but more reliable.

   Memory usage and performance improvements:
   - The 'remove' command has been rewritten to be hundreds of times
     faster in large repositories.
   - It is now possible to 'clone' a repository very quickly over a
     LAN, if the server is configured to allow it. See the new 'server'
     section in the 'hgrc' documentation.

   Other changes of note:
   - Mercurial will now print help for an extension if you type 'hg
     help EXT_NAME'.
   - The usual array of bug fixes and documentation improvements.
   - The integrated web server is now more WSGI-compliant.
   - Work has begun to solidify Mercurial's API for use by third-party
     packages.

6. By Vincent Danjean <email address hidden>

mercurial will use the default python interpreter

5. By Vincent Danjean <email address hidden>

call dh_python with -V 2.4 argument

4. By Vincent Danjean <email address hidden>

* Closes: #343459: correct FAQ URL
* Closes: #343458: fix directory completion
* Closes: #343472: clone does not work with path aliases
  (Thanks Daniel Kobras for these three bugreports with patch)

3. By Vincent Danjean <email address hidden>

Add support for alias st for hg status (Closes: #340235)
(backport from tip, thanks Michael Gebetsroither <email address hidden>)

2. By Vincent Danjean <email address hidden>

* backport from upstream of
  - use of 'hgext' directory for extensions
  - 'hgk.py' extension (was hgit before)
  => 'hg view' works ;-)
* add 'Recommands: wish' for the hgk extension
