I'm not sure to follow you here. You seems to be comparing two different 
way of invoking mercurial, but you only include a full example for only 
one. Can you clarify what we compare here.

You also suggest that there is a different in behavior between 3.5 and 
3.3. I'm not clear what is the behavior you are pointing at in each case.

Could you clarify the two points above?
