Thanks for the tip -- I figured something would have to be set like that.
Looks like it's not quite right though:
$ cat .hg/hgrc
default = https://anonhg.netbsd.org/src
$ hg incoming
abort: repository default not found!
The manual section for "hg clone" does say:
The location of the source is added to the new repository's .hg/hgrc
file, as the default to be used for future pulls.
However hgrc(5) suggests the syntax might have to be a bit different,
more like a .git/config.
Ah ha! It looks like this has to be in the "[paths]" section, and MUST
NOT be proceeded by a tab or other whitespace (which .git/config allows):
$ cat .hg/hgrc
[paths]
default = https://anonhg.netbsd.org/src
$ hg incoming | head
comparing with https://anonhg.netbsd.org/src
