The way a Mercurial plugin interacts with Mercurial has changed over
time. The technique used in trees has been deprecated for a while and in
3.8, it no longer works.
I have a patch that adopts the new method using decorators, introduced
in Mercurial 1.9. It also contains a fallback workaround that keeps
compatibility with older versions.
For trees, there are further complications for versions between 1.9 and
3.1 which the patch also handles. I have run the automatic tests for all
versions from 1.1 to latest as well as manually using it with various
versions.
