Clarified message when nothing to merge is seen.
Sometimes there's a non-tip head waiting to be merged, especially after
pulling in remote changes while there were local modifications in the working
directory which had to be committed before 'hg merge' can work.

The standalone Windows installer for Mercurial is built in a somewhat jury-rigged fashion. It has the following prerequisites, at least as I build it: Python for Windows http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4.1/python-2.4.1.msi MinGW http://www.mingw.org/ Python for Windows Extensions http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ mfc71.dll (just download, don't install) http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/ The py2exe distutils extension http://sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe/ Inno Setup http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php ISTool http://www.istool.org/default.aspx/ add_path (you need only add_path.exe in the zip file) http://www.barisione.org/apps.html#add_path And, of course, Mercurial itself. Once you have all this installed and built, clone a copy of the Mercurial repository you want to package, and name the repo C:\hg\hg-release. In a shell, build a standalone copy of the hg.exe program: python setup.py build -c mingw32 py2exe -b 1 Copy mfc71.dll and add_path.exe into the dist directory that just got created. Run ISTool, and open the C:\hg\hg-release\contrib\win32\mercurial.iss file. In ISTool, type Ctrl-F9 to compile the installer file. The actual installer will be in the C:\hg\hg-release\Output directory.
