If I want some part even inside a file to not be versioned i.e. like a password or likewise, is there a way to tell mercurial to do this?
Thank you

No. You would have to move the stuff you don’t want versioned into a separate file. Then just don’t track that file in the repo.
How you accomplish that depends on your development stack. If it is a project that is compiled, including it as an embedded resource allows you to compile it in and retrieve the value at runtime. Doing some sort of
includeof the separate file is another option.
