encoding: default ambiguous character to narrow
The current implementation of colwidth was treating 'A'mbiguous
characters as wide, which was incorrect in a non-East Asian context.
As per http://unicode.org/reports/tr11/#Recommendations, we should
instead default to 'narrow' if we don't know better. As character
width is dependent on the particular font used and we have no idea
what fonts are in use, this recommendation applies.
This introduces HGENCODINGAMBIGUOUS to get the old behavior back.

Mercurial reads configuration data from several files, if they exist. Below we list the most specific file first. On Windows, these configuration files are read: - ``<repo>\.hg\hgrc`` - ``%USERPROFILE%\.hgrc`` - ``%USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini`` - ``%HOME%\.hgrc`` - ``%HOME%\mercurial.ini`` - ``C:\mercurial\mercurial.ini`` (unless regkey or hgrc.d\ or mercurial.ini found) - ``HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mercurial`` (unless hgrc.d\ or mercurial.ini found) - ``<hg.exe-dir>\hgrc.d\*.rc`` (unless mercurial.ini found) - ``<hg.exe-dir>\mercurial.ini`` On Unix, these files are read: - ``<repo>/.hg/hgrc`` - ``$HOME/.hgrc`` - ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` - ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` - ``<install-root>/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` - ``<install-root>/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` If there is a per-repository configuration file which is not owned by the active user, Mercurial will warn you that the file is skipped:: not trusting file <repo>/.hg/hgrc from untrusted user USER, group GROUP If this bothers you, the warning can be silenced (the file would still be ignored) or trust can be established. Use one of the following settings, the syntax is explained below: - ``ui.report_untrusted = False`` - ``trusted.users = USER`` - ``trusted.groups = GROUP`` The configuration files for Mercurial use a simple ini-file format. A configuration file consists of sections, led by a ``[section]`` header and followed by ``name = value`` entries:: [ui] username = Firstname Lastname <firstname.lastname@example.net> verbose = True The above entries will be referred to as ``ui.username`` and ``ui.verbose``, respectively. Please see the hgrc man page for a full description of the possible configuration values: - on Unix-like systems: ``man hgrc`` - online: http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/hgrc.5.html
