I might try on my laptop, but it has both THG and a non-THG Windows version of Mercurial, so that might not be conclusive. The latter is available from the main Mercurial site, <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HackableMercurial> which is only up to 2.6. There are a couple of better known downloads for Windows installers for 2.7.2, but I haven't tried them.
It is, of course, a bit of pain for the THG you already have not to be recognized. There might be some path settings involved, since THG does make the command line tools available. /dps On Monday, October 21, 2013 5:56:28 PM UTC-4, Dave S wrote: > >> On Monday, October 21, 2013 12:15:05 PM UTC-7, User wrote: >>> >>> I have cloned the web2py mercurial repository and hg updated to >>> R-2.7.4.
