Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 Replying to [comment:68 leif]:

 Downloading these various files in sage-update seems to at least partly
 defeat the purpose of the new repo, but anyway.

 If we put it in deps, I guess it gets installed at the end?  I was tempted
 to make it part of BASE, but then during an upgrade, any changes to the
 Sage root repo would mean that everything would be rebuilt, which would be
 annoying.  The only issue is if there is an upgrade to a script like
 "pipestatus" which is in the root repo, is used in the upgrade process,
 and is not downloaded in sage-update.

 functional Mercurial... ;-)

 I think I'll switch to running "hg verify".
