           Summary: Debian/Ubuntu hg package version not up to date
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux

tl;dr: Debian/Ubuntu package longs for its friend fsmonitor

I'm not sure if this is the place for this, but it seems that running `apt-get
install mercurial` as proposed in the docs to download/install Mercurial
installs v 3.7.3 instead of a newer version, and because fsmonitor becomes part
of the core package as of 3.8, it would be great to get that automatically. 

Running `apt-cache show mercurial` says (among other things): "Version:
3.7.3-1ubuntu1".

Please let me know if I can give more info or be of assistance!
