Tutorial - getting started: installation
Installing ["Mercurial"] is straightforward.
For Linux, MacOS X, and other Unix variants, follow the UnixInstall directions.
On Windows, follow the WindowsInstall instructions.
Once you're done, come back here.
Note: This tutorial assumes you are running a version of ["Mercurial"] later than 0.6. In other words, if you have the 0.6 release, the tutorial will not work for you. This tutorial was last updated for ["Mercurial"] 0.9.1.
The ["Mercurial"] program is named hg. Every ["Mercurial"] command starts with hg, followed by the command name, followed by any relevant options and arguments.
Now that ["Mercurial"] is installed, we should be able to simply type hg at the prompt, and the program should display some helpful command summaries:
$ hg Mercurial Distributed SCM basic commands (use "hg help" for the full list or option "-v" for details): add add the specified files on the next commit annotate show changeset information per file line clone make a copy of an existing repository (...)
If this is not the case, there is something wrong with your installation, and you should take a look at InstallTroubleshooting.
To determine what version of Mercurial we are running, let's type:
$ hg version Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 0.9.1) Copyright (C) 2005 Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
