== Inotify Extension ==

'''This extension is not distributed with Mercurial.'''

''Author: Bryan O'Sullivan''

Download site: [http://hg.kublai.com/mercurial/patches/inotify]

It also requires Bryan's [http://hg.kublai.com/python/inotify python bindings for inotify].

=== Overview ===

This extension uses the linux 2.6 inotify API to make status instantaneous for even very large repositories, by subscribing to the paths in the repository instead of having to check them all at every status command.

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

{{{
[extensions]
inotify=/path/to/inotify
}}}
