r9539 | HG | ||
Path to the 'hg' executable, automatically passed when running | ||||
hooks, extensions or external tools. If unset or empty, this is | ||||
the hg executable's name if it's frozen, or an executable named | ||||
'hg' (with %PATHEXT% [defaulting to COM/EXE/BAT/CMD] extensions on | ||||
Windows) is searched. | ||||
HGEDITOR | ||||
This is the name of the editor to run when committing. See EDITOR. | ||||
(deprecated, use .hgrc) | ||||
HGENCODING | ||||
This overrides the default locale setting detected by Mercurial. | ||||
This setting is used to convert data including usernames, | ||||
changeset descriptions, tag names, and branches. This setting can | ||||
be overridden with the --encoding command-line option. | ||||
HGENCODINGMODE | ||||
This sets Mercurial's behavior for handling unknown characters | ||||
while transcoding user input. The default is "strict", which | ||||
causes Mercurial to abort if it can't map a character. Other | ||||
settings include "replace", which replaces unknown characters, and | ||||
"ignore", which drops them. This setting can be overridden with | ||||
the --encodingmode command-line option. | ||||
HGMERGE | ||||
An executable to use for resolving merge conflicts. The program | ||||
will be executed with three arguments: local file, remote file, | ||||
ancestor file. | ||||
(deprecated, use .hgrc) | ||||
HGRCPATH | ||||
A list of files or directories to search for hgrc files. Item | ||||
separator is ":" on Unix, ";" on Windows. If HGRCPATH is not set, | ||||
platform default search path is used. If empty, only the .hg/hgrc | ||||
from the current repository is read. | ||||
For each element in HGRCPATH: | ||||
- if it's a directory, all files ending with .rc are added | ||||
- otherwise, the file itself will be added | ||||
HGUSER | ||||
This is the string used as the author of a commit. If not set, | ||||
available values will be considered in this order: | ||||
- HGUSER (deprecated) | ||||
- hgrc files from the HGRCPATH | ||||
- interactive prompt | ||||
|
r9704 | - LOGNAME (with ``@hostname`` appended) | ||
|
r9539 | |||
(deprecated, use .hgrc) | ||||
May be used as the author of a commit; see HGUSER. | ||||
LOGNAME | ||||
May be used as the author of a commit; see HGUSER. | ||||
VISUAL | ||||
This is the name of the editor to use when committing. See EDITOR. | ||||
EDITOR | ||||
Sometimes Mercurial needs to open a text file in an editor for a | ||||
user to modify, for example when writing commit messages. The | ||||
editor it uses is determined by looking at the environment | ||||
variables HGEDITOR, VISUAL and EDITOR, in that order. The first | ||||
non-empty one is chosen. If all of them are empty, the editor | ||||
defaults to 'vi'. | ||||
PYTHONPATH | ||||
This is used by Python to find imported modules and may need to be | ||||
set appropriately if this Mercurial is not installed system-wide. | ||||
