Pulls are pretty fast, even over large distances (quite a > change from Teamware, even with nifty things like turbo_flp). Like this ? +-------------+ pull +-------------+ pull +--------------+ | onnv-clone |------>| workstation |----->| bld. machine | | | | repo | | repo | +-------------+ +-------------+ +--------------+ This means doing 'hg commit' instead of 'hg backup' and 'hg pull -u' instead of 'wx restore -f'. There is little problem with this approach however: while sequence of commits is fine, recommit forces a merge on the build machine side (and multiple recommit's are normal, e.g. during code review process to generate new webrev). wx restore does not have this problem because it overrides both metadata and data. Yeah, Mercurial is not Teamware (or SCCS), but still. v.
