Zach, Sorry for not comprehending your comment re: latest patch correctly.

Since Rietveld isn't available on devguide, which makes comparison of patches difficult (at least for me), here's some proposed wording to see if I am understanding your comment correctly. If so, I will submit a new patch. Thanks.


Suggested wording for:

Minimal Configuration
---------------------
To use Mercurial as a committer (both of your and others’ patches),
you should set up some basic options in your configuration file.
On all platforms, you must edit ~/.hgrc. On Windows, TortoiseHg has a
graphical settings dialog for most options, meaning you don’t need to edit
the file directly if you find a graphical interface more helpful.
