Developer Repositories

This page lists repositories used for Mercurial development. See also MercurialDevelopmentProcess.

Main repositories

• http://selenic.com/repo/hg – the main repository, bleeding edge, solely managed by mpm who often pulls from other repositories

• http://selenic.com/repo/hg-stable – the stable repository, solely managed by mpm, contains official releases with safe and important fixes applied, always a subset of the main repository

Stable repository

• The best way to get the latest stable version is to follow this example:

  • hg clone http://selenic.com/repo/hg

  • cd hg
  • hg up stable (this takes you to the stable branch)
  • make local

At the time of writing, this should make a 1.5 stable version of Mercurial.

Bugfixes are committed to the branch named stable and pushed to the main repository. This branch is automatically pushed to hg-stable to provide a separate repository. No new features are going to the stable branch, mainline (the default branch) will be branched again near each release.

Crew repositories

• http://hg.intevation.org/mercurial/crew – the CrewRepository where main contributors queue changes for the main repository

• http://hg.intevation.org/mercurial/crew-stable – changesets of the branch named stable are pushed here automatically.

• http://hg.intevation.org/mercurial/crew+main – automatic mix of crew and main (may contain multiple heads).

• http://bitbucket.org/mg/hg-i18n/ – translation updates are queued here by MartinGeisler (see TranslatingMercurial)

The flow between the main and crew repositories is shown in this graph. The blue repositories are controlled by Matt, the dark green repositories by crew and the light green repository by MartinGeisler.
