[13:56]	<nthomas>	HGRCPATH might be worth looking at

Which would involve setting HGRCPATH to a .hgrc inside mozharness/test/, which enables hg share and sets merge = internal:merge

As for 1.7.3, I think some of the MercurialVCS methods require its behavior.  We'll have to either expand that behavior to support 2.x or remove the tests or something of the sort.

This is mozharness-tests specific.

To clarify: the patch I'm going to post in bug 845908 fixes it so mozharness nosetests pass for me, using either mercurial 1.7.3 or mercurial 2.5.2.
