    This change makes a few improvements to our Mercurial support:

    1. The way that binary files were appearing in diffs was causing the
      diff parser (based on the GitDiffParser) to override the commit IDs
      in the filediff revisions with the file SHAs that hg diff --git was
      adding. The file SHAs have no meaning to us, so these have been
      replaced back with the commit IDs.
    2. I've started seeing warnings pop up about unclosed resources when
      dealing with Popen. Treating the object as a context manager fixes
      this.
    • Ran unit tests.
    • Posted a bunch of changes, including binary files.
