I have created a project that I wish to push to a remote repository.
When I right-click the project in project view and “commit directory,” it says there are no changes. ??
I see nothing under the Version Control->Mercurial.
I just want to avoid having to run “hg init.” Not that big a deal, but it would be nice to know. Thanks!
“hg init” is a one time task to create a repository, which pales into insignificance over various other activities with that repository.
It is always a good idea to create your repository manually. Once that is done, Mercurial will recognize it as a repo and allow you to “add files”, commit etc. All of which you can do via hg4idea.
