Check the docs for Mercurial <http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/hg.1.html>, it explains why you keep getting that "extra" directory. (The BitBucket 101<https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/bitbucket+101>docs might also be good to review)

Try something like hg clone https://[email protected]/me/myproject ./ do try getting it to close into your current directory. (Untested but the general is to tell hg where to put the clone, in this case ./ being current directory) ~Brian On Thursday, April 18, 2013 7:36:56 PM UTC-5, jjg0 wrote: > > I started checking out pythonanywhere but ran into some trouble getting my > site up.
