--- Comment #18 from Kubilay Kocak <koobs@FreeBSD.org> ---
>From the mercurial wiki [1]:

Mercurial 5.2 is the first release that officially has support for Python 3=
.=20

Supported Python 3 versions are 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7.=20

Python 3.8 mostly works, but there are a few known incompatibilities

It is the project policy for Mercurial and its core extensions to be compat=
ible
with Python 3. Over 99% of tests pass with Python 3 and test regressions are
treated seriously.=20

But also, from version 5.x overview [2]

If you package Mercurial or distribute it to users, we do not recommend mak=
ing
Python 3 the default at this time.

We should probably make a mercurial python 3 port/package, or custom flavour
the mercurial port making Python 2.x the default, but allowing Python 3 bui=
lds.
