After refreshing TortoiseHG workshop to generate a diff,
check both the diff and displayed text. Push the diff along with
the idle.rst change and merge both into default (or an intermediate
maintenance version).
When the 'earlist' version gets its final maintenance release,
do an update as described above, without editing idle.rst, to
rebase help.html on the next version of idle.rst. Do not worry
about version changes as version is not displayed. Examine other
changes and the result of Help -> IDLE Help.
If maintenance and default versions of idle.rst diverge, and
merging does not go smoothly, then consider generating
separate help.html files from separate idle.htmls.
