Did you read my mail from 1 October?
Short summary: I tried my luck as a stupid user, and installed 0.5 on top of
0.4.1. TSVN and TCVS continued to work (TSVN uses TortoiseOverlay), but THG
does not show clean and added overlays. It does show modified overlay
though.
I have tried removing the old registry keys, but no change to overlays.
clean (C) and added (A) not shown. modified (M) shown.
My machine is so worked up by my own TortoiseOverlay experiments, so I would
not count this a a definite - it might as well be some leftovers from my old
experiments.
I do have TBZR installed, and it shows nice overlays on "clean" files. I
have not made extensive experiments with TBZR though. When trying to run
shell extension commands (right-click) I get an "ImportError: No module
named commands"
