Calling revlog.addgroup with an empty changegroup now raises RevlogError.
The empty changegroup can be caused by remote servers dying soon after
findincoming, and further code in pull assumes (correctly) that there are
new changesets.

The standalone Windows installer for Mercurial is built in a somewhat jury-rigged fashion. It has the following prerequisites, at least as I build it: Python for Windows http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.4.1/python-2.4.1.msi MinGW http://www.mingw.org/ Python for Windows Extensions http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ mfc71.dll (just download, don't install) http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/ The py2exe distutils extension http://sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe/ Inno Setup http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php ISTool http://www.istool.org/default.aspx/ And, of course, Mercurial itself. Once you have all this installed and built, clone a copy of the Mercurial repository you want to package, and name the repo C:\hg\hg-release. In a shell, build a standalone copy of the hg.exe program: python setup.py build -c mingw32 py2exe -b 1 Copy mfc71.dll into the dist directory that just got created. Run ISTool, and open the C:\hg\hg-release\contrib\win32\mercurial.iss file. In ISTool, type Ctrl-F9 to compile the installer file. The actual installer will be in the C:\hg\hg-release\Output directory.
