Hi,

I have run into a problem  that appears to be an issue with a recent change somewhere now needs  python to use TLS 1.2 and the MAC version on OS X 10.12.6 (Sierra) of Python uses TLS 1.0.  

I am running the following version of hg:
—————
$ hg --version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 4.0.1)
(see https://mercurial-scm.org for more information)

When I tried to do an hg pull, I started receiving the following error last week:
—————
$ sh get_source.sh
pull_default_tail jdk/jdk
No repositories to process.

The version of python on Sierra is:
————
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python -V
Python 2.7.10

/usr/bin/python -V
Python 2.7.10

It appears that hg uses the following python path in the hg script.
————
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python 
——

So I tried to install a newer version of python2 vis brew and then from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2716/

This does not seem to update version of python at 
---------
/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python 
————

and updates /usr/local/bin

I verified that using the latest version of python that it should resolve the jcheck.py  issue via the attached python script which emulates what jheck.py does for accessing https://db.openjdk.java.net/people

Also, it appears from googling it is not possible to update the OS X version of Python, I tried to update the hg script to point to the newer version of  python but received the following error:

————————
$ hg.new pull
abort: couldn't find mercurial libraries in [/usr/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages /usr/local/bin /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python27.zip /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7 /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/plat-darwin /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/plat-mac /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/plat-mac/lib-scriptpackages /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-tk /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-old /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages]
(check your install and PYTHONPATH)

Not sure how to resolve the above.

p.s

 you install python from https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2716/, you will also need to do the following:

———
$ pwd

ljanders-mac:Python 2.7 ljanders$ ls
Extras				Icon?				License.rtf			Python Launcher.app		Update Shell Profile.command
IDLE.app			Install Certificates.command	Python Documentation.html	ReadMe.rtf

If you do not you will receive the following error accessing an https URL (you could also work around it by:
 export PYTHONHTTPSVERIFY=0), for example:

$ python URLTest.py 
Testing urllib2!
