ui: set the default editor on Windows to notepad.exe It's a pretty basic editor, and not one I'd expect anyone to want to continue using. But it exists on PATH (unlike `vi`), and allows `hg config -e` to open the user config file in order to bootstrap making changes, without fiddling with setting `HGEDITOR` in the environment. Otherwise, attempting this results in a cryptic error: C:\Users\Matt>hg config -e 'vi' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. abort: edit failed: vi exited with status 1
