|hg| Getting Started

To work locally with |hg| |repos|, use the following configuration examples and command line instructions.

  • :ref:`config-hgrc`
  • :ref:`config-hgignore`
  • :ref:`basic-hg-cmds`

Configure the .hgrc file

The :file:`~/.hgrc` file is a configuration file which control how |hg| interacts between the server and your local setup.

For |hg| usage, you can configure this in your home directory and it will apply to all |repos|. Use the following example configuration, and put your own information into the relevant sections.

For more detailed information, and a full rundown of all configuration options, see the Mercurial .hgrc config documentation.

Configure the .hgignore file

The :file:`{~path}/{to}/{repo}/.hgignore` file is a configuration file that instructs |hg| to ignore certain files and not commit them to the |repo|. Files such as build files, or editor tracking files are usually not committed to a |repo|.

Create the .hgignore file in your |repo|, and configure it using the following example to ignore the files you do not wish to be added to version control. For more information, see the hgignore documentation

syntax: glob
result
www
*_build/*
*result/*
*.pyc
*.pyo
*.idea
.DS_Store
