I figured out what was going wrong. Figure I'll share for posterity.
I found the following in the toolshed webapp log: "Not trusting file
/galaxy-dist/database/community_files/000/repo_4/.hg/hgrc from untrusted user
x, group x". Turns out this is usually caused when user invoking hg isn't the
No "Upload files to repository" button after creating repository in self-hosted
toolshed.

Any ideas what could be wrong?
