Description: hgdistver
        ~~~~~~~~~
        
        This module is a simple drop-in to support setup.py
        in mercurial based projects.
        
        Its supposed to generate version numbers from mercurials meta-data.
        
        It uses 4 strategies to archive its task:
        
        1. try to directly ask hg for the meta-data
        2. try to infer it from the `.hg_archival.txt` file
        3. try to use the cache file if it exists
        4. try to read the version from the 'PKG-INFO' file sdists contain (this is a nasty abuse)
        
        The most simple usage is::
        
            from setuptools import setup
            from hgdistver import get_version
            setup(
                ...,
                version=get_version(),
                ...,
            )
        
        `get_version` takes the optional argument `cachefile`,
        which causes it to store the version info in a python script instead
        of abusing PKG-INFO from a sdist.
