hg serve in MacHg

Question

I tried to find it in documentation, but couldn't, how can I run Mercurial server (as hg serve in terminal) from MacHg, is it possible at all? I'm on Mac 10.6 if it's important.

thanks.

Answer 1

As per MacHG documentation:

You can use the command line version of Mercurial (via the Terminal) interchangeably with MacHg. You can freely download and install whichever version of Mercurial you want on your machine and it will not conflict with MacHg since an independent copy of Mercurial is bundled inside the MacHg application. (In fact MacHg does this to ensure there are no conflicts or other problems with the users Mercurial configuration.)

You can use regular mercurial binary from standard installation to serve repository

hg serve

And continue to use machg independently of that. Hope that solves your issue.
