Thanks for renaming the @README.txt to README.txt

The problem cropped up on my local machine again with repo I checked out
yesterday which had the older file. Specifically due to @ in the filename
(or the way it was added).

hg complained that

data/Lib/idlelib/idle_test/@README.txt.i at 83941: missing revlog!

This is hg (version 2.3.1) on Mac, case sensitive Apple_HFS file system,
throwing up on a recently cloned repo. This may likely be a bug with
mercurial. To deal with this, I am upgraded mercurial to 2.5 and cloned the
repo again.
