I’ve used Git for quite some time now, and I’m used to adding remotes to my repository, so I can push and pull from URLs with a particular name. Is it possible to do the same in hg? I’m tired of typing the full URL every time I want to push.

    These URLs can all be stored in your configuration file with path
    aliases under the [paths] section like so:

    [paths]
alias1 = URL1
alias2 = URL2
...

    You can then use the alias for
    any command that uses a URL (for example hg pull alias1 will be
    treated as hg pull URL1).

    There’s also SchemesExtension if you do a lot of work with various repos on a particular site (e.g. Bitbucket).
