When I've added `tortoisehg` package, it turned out that mercurial updates sometimes broke thg. I've added a comment to `mercurial/default.nix` to update torotisehg version during mercurial updates, but this worked the other way round: mercurial stopped to be updated regularly (NixOS#60993). And sadly it didn't solve the issue - NixOS#61759. Here I'm trying to untie them. Tortoisehg will build a custom mercurial package if versions don't match. This makes updating tortoisehg more complicated, but it is still better than current situation.

@JohnAZoidberg perhaps wording is bad. Forgot to mention that that PR fixed this particular issue. |

Issue description
A simple version upgrade is due in package 'tortoisehg' in NixOS 19.03.
"TortoiseHg" is a front end for the "Mercurial" version manager. NixOS 19.03 uses Mercurial version (4.9), TortoiseHg version (4.8.2), but "This version of TortoiseHg requires Mercurial version 4.7.n to 4.8.n, but found 4.9", thus TortoiseHg does not work at all currently.
