You mention: "I have to assume that the remote repository is running without a

But it must be a hosting server that follows the Mercurial server protocols.  
Is it not standard to support ‘raw’ file access via the URL?
Like this:

<scheme>://<server>/project_path/path/to/file/raw/<HASH>

To get the raw file, identified by "path/to/file” at the given changeset hash, for the repo 
at “<scheme>://<server>/project_path”  ?  Are there Mercurial servers that don’t 
support this?

How does this work over the ssh protocol? This is a protocol that I need
to have a solution for.
