| TortoiseHg is an all-inclusive Mercurial binary installer package for Windows, which provides a windows explorer extension (shell extension), so that Mercurial commands can be executed from the context menu of the explorer (see [http://tortoisehg.sourceforge.net/images/screenshots/tortoisehg-snapshot-contextmenu.png screenshot]). | {{attachment:thg_logo_92x50.png}} |

| Note: As of version 0.3, TortoiseHg carries an "Alpha" development status on [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tortoisehg/ SourceForge], which refers specifically to the GUI and the explorer integration (explorer.exe). The command line interface (hg.exe) is, however, based on Steve Borho's fully functional "batteries included" installer (note that the Batteries included installer has been deprecated and is no longer maintained as a separate package). | Download: https://www.mercurial-scm.org/downloads |

| Current version 0.3 has some issues with the icon overlay handler, which the project owner, TK Soh, is currently working on (issues [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1894728&group_id=199155&atid=968354 1894728] and [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1892791&group_id=199155&atid=968354 1892791]). The overlay handler is also expected to receive some speed improvements and a memory leak has been identified. Since the overlay handler is an integral part that currently cannot be disabled, users having issues with the overlay handler might best wait for a future release of TortoiseHg.

TortoiseHg
TortoiseHg is a set of graphical tools and a shell extension for Mercurial.
- On Windows
TortoiseHg consists of a shell extension, which provides overlay icons and context menus in your file explorer, and a command line program named thg.exe which can launch the TortoiseHg tools. Binary packages of TortoiseHg for Windows include Mercurial, TortoisePlink and a merge tool and are thus completely ready for use “Out of the Box”.
- On Linux
TortoiseHg consists of a command line thg script and a Nautilus extension which provides overlays and context menus in your file explorer. You must have Mercurial installed separately in order to run TortoiseHg on Linux. TortoiseHg binary packages list Mercurial as a dependency, so it is usually installed for you automatically.
TortoiseHg is primarily written in Python and PyQt (the Windows shell extension being the notable exception). The thg script and TortoiseHg dialogs can be used on any platform that supports PyQt, including Mac OS X.
