r9999 | Mercurial reads configuration data from several files, if they exist. | ||
Below we list the most specific file first. | ||||
On Windows, these configuration files are read: | ||||
- ``<repo>\.hg\hgrc`` | ||||
- ``%USERPROFILE%\.hgrc`` | ||||

Dan Villiom Podlaski Christiansen
|
r9999 | - ``%HOME%\.hgrc`` | ||
Mads Kiilerich
|
r11016 | - ``%HOME%\mercurial.ini`` | ||
- ``C:\mercurial\mercurial.ini`` (unless regkey or hgrc.d\ or mercurial.ini found) | ||||
- ``HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mercurial`` (unless hgrc.d\ or mercurial.ini found) | ||||
- ``<hg.exe-dir>\hgrc.d\*.rc`` (unless mercurial.ini found) | ||||
- ``<hg.exe-dir>\mercurial.ini`` | ||||

On Unix, these files are read: | ||||
- ``<repo>/.hg/hgrc`` | ||||
- ``$HOME/.hgrc`` | ||||
- ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` | ||||
- ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` | ||||
- ``<install-root>/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` | ||||
- ``<install-root>/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d/*.rc`` | ||||
The configuration files for Mercurial use a simple ini-file format. A | ||||
configuration file consists of sections, led by a ``[section]`` header | ||||
and followed by ``name = value`` entries:: | ||||
[ui] | ||||
username = Firstname Lastname <firstname.lastname@example.net> | ||||
verbose = True | ||||

r10998 | The above entries will be referred to as ``ui.username`` and | ||

r9999 | ``ui.verbose``, respectively. Please see the hgrc man page for a full | ||
description of the possible configuration values: | ||||
- on Unix-like systems: ``man hgrc`` | ||||
