Bug 226951: devel/mercurial: enable "hg view"
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=226951



--- Description ---
I would like to use "hg view". I believe the following changes would be
necessary:

- Install /usr/local/share/mercurial/contrib/hgk with mode 755 (instead of 644)

- Depend on tk, probably similar to how devel/git does it.

- The previous point will hopefully also correct the interpreter stored in
/usr/local/share/mercurial/contrib/hgk from "wish" to "wish8.6". Compare for
example /usr/local/bin/gitk.

Anyway, here "hg view" works after making hgk executable and adding a symlink
from wish8.6 to wish (not too elegant).
