 hgrc - configuration files for Mercurial
 
 SYNOPSIS
 --------
 
 The Mercurial system uses a set of configuration files to control
 aspects of its behaviour.
 
 FILES
 -----
 
-Mercurial reads configuration data from three files:
+Mercurial reads configuration data from up to three files, if they
+exist.  The names of these files depend on the system on which
+Mercurial is installed.
 
-/etc/mercurial/hgrc::
+(Unix)    /etc/mercurial/hgrc::
+(Windows) C:\Mercurial\Mercurial.ini::
     Options in this global configuration file apply to all Mercurial
     commands executed by any user in any directory.
 
-$HOME/.hgrc::
+(Unix)    $HOME/.hgrc::
+(Windows) C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Mercurial.ini
     Per-user configuration options that apply to all Mercurial commands,
     no matter from which directory they are run.  Values in this file
     override global settings.
 
-<repo>/.hg/hgrc::
+(Unix, Windows) <repo>/.hg/hgrc::
     Per-repository configuration options that only apply in a
     particular repository.  This file is not version-controlled, and
     will not get transferred during a "clone" operation.  Values in
     this file override global and per-user settings.
 
 SYNTAX
 ------
 
 A configuration file consists of sections, led by a "[section]" header
 and followed by "name: value" entries; "name=value" is also accepted.
 
     [spam]
     eggs=ham
     green=
        eggs
 
 Each line contains one entry.  If the lines that follow are indented,
 they are treated as continuations of that entry.
 
 Leading whitespace is removed from values.  Empty lines are skipped.
 
 The optional values can contain format strings which refer to other
 values in the same section, or values in a special DEFAULT section.
 
 Lines beginning with "#" or ";" are ignored and may be used to provide
 comments.
 
 SECTIONS
 --------
 
 This section describes the different sections that may appear in a
 Mercurial "hgrc" file, the purpose of each section, its possible
 keys, and their possible values.
 
 decode/encode:: 
   Filters for transforming files on checkout/checkin. This would
   typically be used for newline processing or other
   localization/canonicalization of files.
 
   Filters consist of a filter pattern followed by a filter command.
   Filter patterns are globs by default, rooted at the repository
   root.  For example, to match any file ending in ".txt" in the root
   directory only, use the pattern "*.txt".  To match any file ending
   in ".c" anywhere in the repository, use the pattern "**.c".
 
   The filter command can start with a specifier, either "pipe:" or
   "tempfile:".  If no specifier is given, "pipe:" is used by default.
 
   A "pipe:" command must accept data on stdin and return the
   transformed data on stdout.
 
   Pipe example:
 
     [encode]
     # uncompress gzip files on checkin to improve delta compression
     # note: not necessarily a good idea, just an example
     *.gz = pipe: gunzip
 
     [decode]
     # recompress gzip files when writing them to the working dir (we
     # can safely omit "pipe:", because it's the default)
     *.gz = gzip
 
   A "tempfile:" command is a template.  The string INFILE is replaced
   with the name of a temporary file that contains the data to be
   filtered by the command.  The string OUTFILE is replaced with the
   name of an empty temporary file, where the filtered data must be
   written by the command.
 
   NOTE: the tempfile mechanism is recommended for Windows systems,
   where the standard shell I/O redirection operators often have
   strange effects.  In particular, if you are doing line ending
   conversion on Windows using the popular dos2unix and unix2dos
   programs, you *must* use the tempfile mechanism, as using pipes will
   corrupt the contents of your files.
 
   Tempfile example:
 
     [encode]
     # convert files to unix line ending conventions on checkin
     **.txt = tempfile: dos2unix -n INFILE OUTFILE
 
     [decode]
     # convert files to windows line ending conventions when writing
     # them to the working dir
     **.txt = tempfile: unix2dos -n INFILE OUTFILE
 
 hooks::
   Commands that get automatically executed by various actions such as
   starting or finishing a commit.
   changegroup;;
     Run after a changegroup has been added via push or pull.
   commit;;

     created changeset.
   precommit;;
     Run before starting a commit.  Exit status 0 allows the commit to

     "myproxy:8000".
   no;;
     Optional.  Comma-separated list of host names that should bypass
     the proxy.
   passwd;;
     Optional.  Password to authenticate with at the proxy server.
   user;;
     Optional.  User name to authenticate with at the proxy server.
 
 paths::

   symbolic name, and the right gives the directory or URL that is the
   location of the repository.
