+Extension Purpose
+=================
+
+The goal of this extension is to provide an appropriate place for code and
+concept related to changeset evolution to mature. In this extension we allow
+for hackier code, unlocking quick experimentation and faster iterations.
+
+In addition, the evolve extensions support a wider set of Mercurial version,
+allowing us to reach a larger user base for feedback. The Evolve extension is
+not tight to the Mercurial release cycle and can release new feature and bug
+fix at a higher rate if necessary.
+
+Once a concept is ready enough, its implementation is moved into Mercurial
+core. The maturation period helped us to get a clearer picture of what was
+needed. During the upstreaming process, we can use this clearer picture to
+clean up the code and upgrade it to an appropriate quality for Mercurial core.

In addition, we have compatibility branches to check tests on older version of
Mercurial. They are the "mercurial-x.y" branches. They are used to apply
expected test change only, no code change should happen there.
