Fix hg push and hg push -r sometimes creating new heads without --force. Fixing issue179. The algorithm checks if there not more new heads on the remote side than heads which become non-heads due to getting children. Pushing this repo: m /\ 3 3a| |/ / 2 2a |/ 1 to a repo only having 1, 2 and 3 didn't abort requiring --force before. Added test cases for this and some doc strings for used methods.

Mercurial's documentation is currently kept in ASCIIDOC format, which
is a simple plain text format that's easy to read and edit. It's also
convertible to a variety of other formats including standard UNIX man
page format and HTML.

To do this, you'll need to install ASCIIDOC:

 http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/

To generate the man page:

 asciidoc -d manpage -b docbook hg.1.txt
 xmlto man hg.1.xml

To display:

 groff -mandoc -Tascii hg.1 | more

To create the html page (without stylesheets):

 asciidoc -b html hg.1.txt
