I’ve seen it mentioned that mercurial stores the executable bit on files, but cannot find out how to do it. I’m looking for functionality analogous to svn ps svn:executable '' TARGET.
Set (or unset) the executable bit on the file, and then hg will mark it as modified. Commit it.
You will need to enable git-style diffs to see the modes in diff output, but it’s still there regardless.
