IRC

Internet Relay Chat is one of the best ways to interact with the Mercurial community. We can be found in the channel #mercurial on irc.freenode.net.

1. Etiquette

The Mercurial channel usually has a couple hundred people in it, so to help things go smoothly, we ask that you:

  • Don't say hello, just ask your question!
  • If you want help with a bug, please be responsive to developer questions
  • Don't make demands of developers - they're under no obligation to help anyone
  • Don't be rude to other Mercurial users
  • We're not fluent in all SCMs, don't assume we know what a "git foo-bar" is
  • Try to avoid prolonged digressions about things other than Mercurial

  • Use http://paste.lisp.org/new/mercurial to share tracebacks, etc. (or http://pastebin.com)

  • Please read suggestions on giving advice

2.3. When are people here?

You can indicate when you are normally online in the table below. This will make it easy to see who could be online at any given time.

The table below was originally built from logs of #mercurial, #bitbucket, #hgsubversion, #tortoisehg. The number of messages per hour were counted and an hour got a (./) if the number of messages in that hour were more than 30% of the highest number of messages for an hour. Please adjust as needed.
