My bad. Sorry for the noise.
I defined an hg() function in /etc/bash.bashrc that dropped the quote
protection. I don't know why it worked OK in Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu
18.04. In Buster/Sid, hg now works fine for me (after experimentally
undoing my error with an "unset -f hg").

Dear Maintainer,
The bash command line:
% hg commit -m 'my updates'
results in:
abort: 2017_original/180914_updates/updates: No such file or directory
... which is true, there is no such file or directory. However, I
wasn't trying to commit any such file. I was trying to do a general
commit with the commit message "my updates".
It worked as expected only when I removed the space from the message:
% hg commit -m 'my_updates'.
Works for me:
jcristau@tomate:/tmp$ hg init hgtest
jcristau@tomate:/tmp$ cd hgtest/
jcristau@tomate:/tmp/hgtest$ touch a
jcristau@tomate:/tmp/hgtest$ hg addremove
adding a
jcristau@tomate:/tmp/hgtest$ hg commit -m 'my updates'
jcristau@tomate:/tmp/hgtest$ hg log

You may want to check your extensions or something else in your setup
that might be messing this up.
Cheers,
