New description:

 As above. See some discussion at [http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 devel/browse_thread/thread/f5a9c012f6299a9e sage-devel].

 This would involve making the Mercurial spkg install an hgrc at
 $SAGE_LOCAL/etc/mercurial/hgrc as well as adding lines to .hg/hgrc in the
 major repositories in the sage distribution (`.`, `data/extcode`,
 `devel/sage/`, `devel/sagenb/`, and `local/bin/`). I exclude `examples`
 and `spkg/base` because they are scheduled to be gotten rid of (#7494 and
 #11073 respectively).

 Apply trac_11121-hgrc.local-bin.patch to local/bin

 Apply trac_11121-hgrc.mercurial-spkg.patch to . in mercurial-1.6.4.p0.spkg

Comment:

 These patches set the default diff format to git's new diffs (as opposed
 to the default which is the old unified diff spec) and add some (IMHO)
 very useful extensions to the default hgrc. Any comments / suggestions?
