Author: G. Grothendieck

Download site: Download direct from this page - attachment:rcpath.py

Overview

This extension displays Mercurial configuration file paths and names.

hg rcpath

show path/file names to startup files

options:

 -a --all         all path/names that could be used
 -d --duplicates  retain duplicates

use "hg -v help rcpath" to show global options

Configuration

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

[extensions]
rcpath = path/to/rcpath.py

Examples

Here is an example of use. The first shows the two rc files that are currently being used.

C:\>hg rcpath
C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\mercurial.ini
C:\Users\Jones\.hgrc

Comparing to the prior output, the second output line of this example did not appear above showing that in addition to the pathnames that are being used that C:\Users\Jones\mercurial.ini could potentially be used as well.

C:\>hg rcpath -a
C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\mercurial.ini
C:\Users\Jones\mercurial.ini
C:\Users\Jones\.hgrc
