> You can disable the overlays on a per-repository basis.

My proposal is not about differentiating between different repos.

I know that I can do this, but...


... merely I want to avoid that the handler scans every directory (viewed 
by the explorer) for hg repo files. That's what you achieve in TSVN e.g. 
like this:

exlude dirs : *     (by default all dirs are excluded from repo scanning)
include dirs: D:\WC (only this directory is objected to overlay-icons)

Well, perhaps it's because I don't understand how thg's overlay-handler 
works, but I figure it should speed up the explorer views if you do not 
have to search for Mercurial, CVS and SVN repos in every single directory 
viewed in the various explorer views.

Could be the performance gain is minimal. Just a thought!
