In git I can git remote add x http://... then git pull x how can I do this in hg?
I was told to add the following to .hgrc:
[paths]
x = http://...
so I added the above to /path/to/repo/.hgrc then tried hg pull x and got the following error:
abort: repository x not found!
where x was mozilla and http:// was http://hg.mozilla.org/labs/jetpack-sdk/
The hgrc file is in
/path/to/repo/.hg/hgrc(note there’s no period in front of the name). It looks like you created a file called .hgrc in the root of the repository, which Mercurial doesn’t recognize.You could also do
hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/labs/jetpack-sdkwhich would create a local repository and pull all of its files in one step.
