[issue806] hg log should work on remote repositories

[Chris Turner]

New submission from Chris Turner <j.chris.turner at gmail.com>:

I'm currently in a folder that is not version controlled under hg. When running 
'hg log /tmp/test' (where /tmp/test is an hg repository), I'm receiving:

abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!

In this case, I don't really care whether I'm currently in a repository when 
making this command. It should be looking at the remote .hg folder for the log 
info.
