Well, mercurial is distributed SCM, so the workflow is different than subversion. Repositories are mostly local (or can be made so by simple filecopy), so local checkout and copy-to-remote should be the mostly used deployment, I guess. There is little need for remote repository support. And when you do local export and copy over network, it does matter a lot if there is 1 MB or 4 MB to copy. It's not space, it's time. I do not care if it is supported or not, because I fixed it and it works for me. But the reasoning is flawed. This is not subversion with central remote repository. This is mercurial with local directory, which doubles as a repository. Intentionally disabling support for local repositories because remote don't work is IMHO not the right way. The main point of distributed scm is local repository, isn't it? izidor --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/capistrano -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
