>> Vinay, 2.5 has been long closed for bug fixes. You should target 2.7.
But it wasn't a bug in 2.5 per se, it was a bug introduced by the migration from Subversion to Mercurial. Perhaps Mercurial could be trained to expand the $HeadURL$ string appropriately. Failing that, I don't see any great harm in expanding that string and checking it in, simply to avoid this problem in the future. I'm sure there are plenty of developers maintaining external code which is still supposed to be 2.5-compatible.
