Using rsync to 'push' and 'pull'
This push script ignores locking issues - don't use it for pushing to a repository with multiple writers!
This script will perform a pull from an rsync path:
cd `hg root` rm -rf .hg/rsync hg clone -U . .hg/rsync # make an approximate copy to rsync over rsync -ae ssh $1/.hg .hg/rsync # rsync over our copy hg pull .hg/rsync # pull from our copy rm -rf .hg/rsync
Use like this:
$ rsyncpull user@server:repo/foo pulling from .hg/rsync searching for changes adding changesets adding manifests adding file changes added 57 changesets with 153 changes to 65 files (run 'hg update' to get a working copy)
Similarly, we can push with a script like this:
cd `hg root` rm -rf .hg/rsync hg clone -U . .hg/rsync rsync -ae ssh $1/.hg .hg/rsync hg push .hg/rsync rsync -ae ssh .hg/rsync $1/.hg rm -rf .hg/rsync
