Useful mostly for putting information about the current repository into
a shell prompt.

    Take a string and output it for use in a shell prompt. You can use 
    keywords in curly braces:
    
        $ hg prompt "currently on {branch}"
        currently on default
    
    You can also use an extended form of any keyword:
    
        {optional text here{keyword}more optional text}
    
    This will expand the inner {keyword} and output it along with the extra
    text only if the {keyword} expands successfully.  This is useful if a
    keyword that may not always apply to the current state and you have some
    text that you would like to see only if it is appropriate:
    
        $ hg prompt "currently at {bookmark}"
        currently at 
        $ hg prompt "{currently at {bookmark}}"
        $ hg bookmark my-bookmark
        $ hg prompt "{currently at {bookmark}}"
        currently at my-bookmark
    
    The following keywords are available:
    
    - bookmark: the current bookmark
    - branch: the current branch
    - status: "!" if the current repository contains files that have been
        modified, added, removed, or deleted, otherwise "?" if it contains
        untracked (and not ignored) files, otherwise nothing.
