I typed hg init in a directory, but then changed my mind: I’d rather not have this under version control. So how do I undo hg init?

I suppose there is another solution than deleting .hg directories, but I couldn’t find the command. Or is it impossible for mercurial to remove itself from a project?

    Why don’t using

    rm -rv .hg/ on Linux/Unix systems or under MacOS

    or

    rmdir /S .hg on WIndows systems (with the good ol’ cmdline, the first example works under the PowerShell too).

    It’s simple and effective and does what you want: Removing Mercurial from the project.
