These are very good news! Thanks Pierre-Yves and Matt Harbison! 1. Note that the wheels can be installed and tested with pipx with
``` pipx install mercurial --pip-args=--pre pipx inject mercurial hg-git hg-evolve ``` 2. Note that another simple way to install recent Mercurial (with the Rust extension on Linux and C on macOS and Windows) with hg-evolve and hg-git is with conda-forge (https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge) ``` conda activate base pip install conda-app conda-app install mercurial ``` This is the simplest way to get modern Mercurial setup for beginners. A reasonable ~/.hgrc is written by default so that hg-git, evolve and topic are enabled. 3. Unfortunately, hg-git is not tested against Mercurial 6.9 (https://foss.heptapod.net/mercurial/hg-git/activity) It could make sense given the importance of hg-git that Mercurial core-developers ensure that they do not release a Mercurial release that would break hg-git. 4. After Mercurial 6.9 is released, there would be simple ways to install and manage Mercurial environment with pipx, uv and conda-app. Having a command to be able to simply set auto-completion (like many other modern tools) would become very useful. Something like that: ``` echo 'eval "$(hg generate-shell-completion bash)"' >> ~/.bashrc ``` See https://bz.mercurial-scm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6918 Best regards, Pierre ----- Mail original ----- > De: "Pierre-Yves David" <pierre-yves.da...@ens-lyon.org> > À: "mercurial" <mercurial@lists.mercurial-scm.org> > Cc: "Matt Harbison" <mharbiso...@gmail.com> > Envoyé: Vendredi 15 Novembre 2024 02:08:24 > Objet: Re: Update on publishing Wheels > We are now able to build new target: > > - Windows arm64 > - Linux musl variant > - Linux arm64 > > Wheels for the newly tagged 6.9rc1 have been uploaded to pypi (except for the > macos and linux arm64 one that should arrive soon) > On 11/13/24 21:18, Pierre-Yves David wrote: > > > > > Hello everyone > > Here is a quick update on our progress toward offering wheels for Mercurial > > # Current CI state > > > Over the past few weeks, we consolidated the CI to actually build (the easy > part) but also tests the resulting wheels (the harder part). > > As the result the CI is currently building wheels for : > > * Linux (x86_64) (testing 3.8, 3.11. 3.12 and 3.13) > * Mac (x86_64) (testing 3.10) > * Windows (x86, AMD64) (testing 3.9 AMD64) > > > # Nightly builds ! > > > "Nightly" build are available in the heptapod's pypi repository for the > project: > > [ https://foss.heptapod.net/mercurial/mercurial-devel/-/packages/ | > https://foss.heptapod.net/mercurial/mercurial-devel/-/packages/ ] > > > Please consider testing these nightly as soon as possible to confirm they fit > your needs. > > However, be warned that about any contributor can publish package to this > repository, so it does not offer the same security guarantee as the official > packages.
