A workaround to simplify the upgrade would be to change `wireprototypes.SUPPORTED_ELLIPSESCAP` to be `(ELLIPSESCAP1, )` on the server from now until all clients have upgraded. But that may still be annoying and error-prone for you to deal with. @pulkit, I suppose we should just add a `exp-narrow-2` capability to deal with this? It doesn't seem fair to make @idlsoft deal with it.

  It does seem to be more work than I hoped at first, so it would be very much appreciated if you can live with `hg tracked --add-include` (and `--remove-exclude`) not working while you transition server and clients.
