Just a heads-up on a side-issue related to Tortoise HG ... Last week I
discovered a "new" Mercurial/Git client called SourceTree
<http://www.sourcetreeapp.com/>. I've been using Tortoise HG for a couple
of years, but the attractive screen shots and glowing testimonials
compelled me to migrate on the spot! The new UI is a bit more comprehensive
and easier to read, and the tree of repositories contains a nice compact
summary of the status of each repository. So overall it's a mild
improvement.

But ... no Windows shell extensions are included with SourceTree. All the
context menus and icons that are included with Tortoise HG are absent. No
one mentioned that in the reviews. I've decided to live without the shell
help.

I also noticed that an irritating tray icon for Pageant PuTTY
authentication agent launches every time you start SourceTree. Luckily you
can turn this off in the settings.
