Mercurial version 0.9.1 for Windows



Welcome to Mercurial for Windows!



Mercurial is a command-line application. You must run it from
the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a<br /> href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW shell).



Note: the standard <a<br /> href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW msys startup script uses
rxvt which has problems setting up standard input and output.
Running bash directly works correctly.


For documentation, please visit the <a<br /> href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial">Mercurial web site.



By default, Mercurial installs to C:\Mercurial. The
Mercurial command is called hg.exe.



Testing Mercurial after you've installed it



The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is to
just type the following at the command prompt:




hg


This command should print a useful help message. If it does,
other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.



Configuration notes


The default editor for commit messages is 'vi'. You can set the EDITOR
(or HGEDITOR) environment variable to specify your preference or set it in
mercurial.ini:



[ui]
editor = whatever
