Not having to login to admin, or not having to have a shell open on the server? One could argue that rsync does what's needed, although that's not a solution for Windows. Chef and Salt can handle Windows, though. And those machines that have a VCS installed are likely to be run by those who want more than linear commits and pulls. I think that's true on Heroku as well as regular development machines. And devops don't want to touch individual machines, they want to have automatic scripts fire. /dps > On Thursday, 31 August 2017 21:06:25 UTC-5, Dave S wrote: >> >> >> >> On Thursday, August 31, 2017 at 3:26:43 PM UTC-7, Massimo Di Pierro wrote: >>> >>> I think we should drop mercurial support and move to git consistently. >>> >> >> Perhaps drop all VCS built-ins, and let the role be better served by VCS >> tools external to the web2py code. >> >> /dps >> >> >>> On Wednesday, 30 August 2017 06:21:13 UTC-5, mweissen wrote: >>>> >>>> I want to try the admin versioning. >>>> mercurial is installed, hg --version shows 2.8.2 >>>> >>>> And a click on versioning gives "Sorry, could not find mercurial >>>> installed" >>>> >>>> What is wrong - any ideas? >>>> Regards, Martin >>>> >>>> -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
