changeset 7:339e75288632

More progress on MQ chapter and general support. Added a note environment. Fixed generated HTML so it wouldn't use huge escaped entities for everything. Wrote a small amount of actual content.

+You can use MQ with \emph{any} Mercurial repository; to start, simply
+prepare the repository using the \hgcmd{qinit} command (see
+figure~\ref{ex:mq:qinit}).  This command creates an empty directory
+called \filename{.hg/patches}, where MQ will keep its metadata.  As
+with many Mercurial commands, the \hgcmd{qinit} command prints nothing
+if it succeeds.

+\end{figure}
+
+To commence work on a new patch, use the \hgcmd{qnew} command.  This
+command takes one argument, the name of the patch to create.  MQ will
+use this as the name of an actual file in the \filename{.hg/patches}
+directory, as you can see in figure~\ref{ex:mq:qnew}.
+
+Now also present in the \filename{.hg/patches} directory are two new
+files, \filename{series} and \filename{status}.  The \filename{series}
+file lists all of the patches that MQ knows about for this repository,
+with one patch per line.  The \filename{status} file lists all of the
+patches that MQ has \emph{applied} in this repository.
+
+\begin{note}
+  You may sometimes want to edit the \filename{series} file by hand;
+  for example, to change the sequence in which some patches are
+  applied.  However, manually editing the \filename{status} file is
+  almost always a bad idea, as it's easy to corrupt MQ's idea of what
+  is happening.
