I use HG and do lots of tinkering on Windows, and my imagination can't conceive why this would be a real problem -- unless people chose to make it into one. (yeah, you sometimes need to run fromdos or equivalent on new files if checking in from windows, and it's nice to have pre-commit filters that complains if you forget, but that's not really a big deal if you factor in all the advantages you get from mercurial...) </F> _______________________________________________ python-committers mailing list python-committers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-committers
