Repository: [[http://bitbucket.org/tarek/hgexternals/]]

=== Overview ===

A Mercurial extension that simulates in some ways Subversion's externals features.

The current version supports external repositories that are either Subversion or Mercurial.

=== Configuration ===

Configure your .hgrc to enable the extension by adding following lines:

{{{
[extensions]
hgexternals=/path/to/hgexternals.py
}}}

or place hgexternals.py in your 'hgext' directory and add the following lines:

{{{
[extensions]
hgext.hgexternals=
}}}

=== Usage ===

(This is only a description of the basic usage.)

Create an .hgexternals file:

{{{
cat > .hgexternals
hgexternals http://bitbucket.org/tarek/hgexternals/
externals/python http://svn.python.org/projects/python/trunk svn -r1
^D
}}}

Pull in externals:

{{{
hg externals
}}}
