after a bit of testing earlier today, i don't think mercurial nested repos are going to help. while they superficially look like "svn:externals", at the moment, only a small number of hg commands are subrepo-aware -- commit, push and update. so even after setting up the proper .hgsub file, you can't do nested "hg pull" or "hg incoming", which (sort of) minimizes the value of that feature. for the nuxeo repos, setting this up involved simply creating the top-level .hgsub text file: ===== nuxeo-common = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-common nuxeo-runtime = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-runtime nuxeo-core = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-core nuxeo-services = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-services nuxeo-theme = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-theme nuxeo-webengine = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-webengine nuxeo-jsf = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-jsf nuxeo-gwt = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-gwt nuxeo-features = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-features nuxeo-dm = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-dm nuxeo-distribution = http://hg.nuxeo.org/nuxeo/nuxeo-distribution ===== adding it and committing it locally, which generated the corresponding .hgsubstate file: ===== de4859549a9c4743329f7a7c4c44b0c81bf64bfc nuxeo-common 10557e150625d3bf6079c69e5892a9fa6c90c128 nuxeo-core d7129ff319a2620bddb0c0a4f10e71d5ccd9f2ca nuxeo-distribution 41db14b32bc6bc0cd57546ea18e577073958ab43 nuxeo-dm 55569fcb78d9c6d803ac950c47c771b28bc9755c nuxeo-features cf38bcd105488ae4f81691036ceb37e00dd716ce nuxeo-gwt 995591e221cb77cb1eb2391dd03fd9d3eba2d1d2 nuxeo-jsf 885beca501cda4a68a724ed234912a49fd6a90e4 nuxeo-runtime eac7526e81b11d0c0f7cf7d3cc53a39fead24202 nuxeo-services 49e431975ca564ebecf9ad3ad10a45b7ba457932 nuxeo-theme dad67a234e4e2b14154496da9e8ae91c2604a6ff nuxeo-webengine ===== at that point, my nested repos are set up locally but, as i mentioned above, the value is somewhat limited with only a few hg commands taking advantage of that. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
