Fabric is just an automation tool. It does everything you do manually, just faster. I've configured it so that `fab update` is equal to login, cd, run `hg up` in web site directory + some sugar coating like aborting if remote copy is not clean.
It is not a dependency. Not yet. Official manual guidelines from README.txt still apply. I recommend watching some presentation about fabric.
