Whats the Mercurial hg clone syntax to clone a repository to a folder on a local file system. Say I have a repository in C:\MyProject\ and I want to create a clone in G:\Version Control\MyProject\ - what would the command line be?
Thanks

Clone a remote Mercurial repositoryFrom the main menu, select Hg | Get from Version Control. The Get from Version Control dialog opens. In the dialog that opens, select Mercurial from the Version control list and specify the URL of the remote repository you want to clone. Click Clone.
To clone a repository you have to run the clone dialog. From the explorer context menu select TortoiseHg… ‣ Clone a repository or type thg clone. It is the path (or URL) of the repository that will be cloned.
The hg command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial system.
hg help is your friend. hg help clone yields:
hg clone [OPTION]... SOURCE [DEST]
So, for this case it should be something like:
hg clone C:\MyProject "G:\Version Control\MyProject" If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
