%Distributed revision control is a relatively new territory, and has
%thus far grown due to people's willingness to strike out into
%ill-charted territory.

%I am writing a book about distributed revision control because I
%believe that it is an important subject that deserves a field guide.
%I chose to write about Mercurial because it is the easiest tool to
%learn the terrain with, and yet it scales to the demands of real,
%challenging environments where many other revision control tools fail.

%I am releasing this book while I am still writing it, in the hope that
%it will prove useful to others.  I also hope that readers will
%contribute as they see fit.

%\section{About the examples in this book}
\section{$B$3$NK\$NNc$K$D$$$F(B}

%This book takes an unusual approach to code samples.  Every example is
%``live''---each one is actually the result of a shell script that
%executes the Mercurial commands you see.  Every time an image of the
%book is built from its sources, all the example scripts are
%automatically run, and their current results compared against their
%expected results.

%The advantage of this approach is that the examples are always accurate;
%they describe \emph{exactly} the behaviour of the version of Mercurial
%that's mentioned at the front of the book.  If I update the version of
%Mercurial that I'm documenting, and the output of some command changes,
%the build fails.

%There is a small disadvantage to this approach, which is that the dates
%and times you'll see in examples tend to be ``squashed'' together in a
%way that they wouldn't be if the same commands were being typed by a
%human.  Where a human can issue no more than one command every few
%seconds, with any resulting timestamps correspondingly spread out, my
%automated example scripts run many commands in one second.

%As an instance of this, several consecutive commits in an example can
%show up as having occurred during the same second.  You can see this
%occur in the \hgext{bisect} example in section~\ref{sec:undo:bisect},
%for instance.

%So when you're reading examples, don't place too much weight on the
%dates or times you see in the output of commands.  But \emph{do} be
