Overview

snap is a Mercurial extension for storing (big) file snapshots outside a Mercurial repository.

This is useful for files which are either too big, or do not change in small enough deltas to be stored in a source revision system like Mercurial. They would increase the repository size, memory consumption, and run-time.

Read the documentation on the wiki (mirror) and use

$ hg help snap

to get further information.

The snap extension requires at least Mercurial 1.6, or TortoiseHG 1.1.4.

Configuration

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

You enable snap like any other Mercurial extension, simply add

[extensions]
hgext.snap=/path/to/snap.py
