Using Mercurial: Updating a central repository

Updating the central repository

Once your local version is satisfactory, and you have merged in the changes from the main branch, you can update the central repository with the command hg push. Before doing a push, common courtesy requires that all of the code:
  1. Compiles; and
  2. Passes all unit tests.
When you push, Google Code may request your password. If you get sick of typing your password, add it to your .hg/hgrc as follows:
[paths]
default = https://userid:password@code.google.com/p/project/
