hg push with credentials for HTTP server

Question

I have a HTTP server with some Mercurial repositories; in which I handle digest authentication, and I found myself pushing changes to the server too often, so, I wanna know If is there any way to send the credentials (user and password) along with the hg push command?

Thanks

Answer 1

Please use the auth section in your hgrc file. That will let you write things like:

[auth]
bb.prefix = https://bitbucket.org/
bb.username = mg
bb.password = something

Answer 2

With http authentication, I use hg push https://user:[email protected] in hgrc file, not sure if it helps here.
