Sorry to bikeshed more, but I think the typical way to document such
features is to show what should be copied to the config file. I would
write,
Histedit rule lines are truncated to 80 characters by default. You
can customise this behaviour by setting a different length in your
configuration file:
[histedit]
linelen = 120 # truncate rule lines at 120 characters
This appears to be the style in e.g. `hg help -e patchbomb`, `hg help
-e progress` or `hg help -e highlight`.
