Start with the https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/DeveloperInfo
information; it tells you how to contribute code, like what standards
we require.

However, know that simply putting in the `from __future__ import
absolute_import` line at the top may well *not* be enough, or the
entirely the wrong thing to do for third-party code imported into the
mercurial repository. If it was this simple, we'd already have done
it!

The mailing list is mirrored in various places that let you search;
perhaps you could look through what others have done in this area?
http://markmail.org/search/?q=list%3Amercurial-devel+subject%3Aabsolute_import#query:list%3Amercurial-devel%20subject%3Aabsolute_import
searches the markmail.org archive for any email talking about
absolute_import specifically.
