Just a quick update on the conversion to Mercurial.
There are a couple of things you can do right now to play with hg.
I have temporarily made two branches available. See
http://c64.knis.dk:8000/
To check out the Release_2_1-maint branch, do the following:
cd someplace mkdir hg-Release_2_1-maint cd hg-Release_2_1-maint hg init . hg pull http://c64.knis.dk:8000/Release_2_1-maint-conv-1/ hg up
Or alternatively:
hg clone http://c64.knis.dk:8000/trunk-conv-1/ hg-trunk
The conversions has been done from a dead copy of the svn depot; upstream changes will not be mirrored.
The conversions has been made with hgsvn, which gives some of the same functionality as bzr-svn.
Please play with these repositories and let us know what you think. If/when there is enough interest the branches can be set up to be more convenient.
/Mads - who thinks that hg and bzr are so different that hg should have an announcement too, but so similar that they should have similar announcements ;-)
