RFR: Make trees work with hg 4.6

[Martin Buchholz]

Hej Erik,

You may find my colleague's fixes useful.  I've made them available on cr.

(too many Martins?!)

This change seems unrelated to hg 4.6:
It seems too easy to get false positives if you're simply looking for 'rc'
Probably gratuitously different string quotes '' vs "" could be fixed.

-    tags = filter(lambda t: not t.endswith('-rc') and t != "tip", tags)
+    tags = filter(lambda t: 'rc' not in t and t != "tip", tags)

The other changes look good to me but I'm not a python or trees developer.
