Details

STR:

  1. Run ./mach bootstrap
  2. Notice that interface = curses is being added to .hgrc

Note that doing so is not harmless; running hg histedit with this setting enabled on Windows fails with

about: No module named _curses!

Workaround: run pip install windows-curses

I looked this up, and it looks like the infringing code is in configwizard, so I'm moving components.
