Add allowed bundle types as argument to hgweb unbundle capability.
Arguments to capabilities were added before the 0.9.1 release, so there
are no compatibility issues. Mercurial 0.9 didn't support http push.
Using HG10GZ, HG10BZ and HG10UN has the advantage that new bundle types can
be added later and the client doesn't have to try sending them first and
reacting on errors sent by the server.

You must run it from the Windows command prompt (or if you're hard core, a <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> shell).</p> <p><div class="indented"><i>Note: the standard <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> msys startup script uses rxvt which has problems setting up standard input and output.

The Mercurial command is called <tt>hg.exe</tt>.</p> <h1>Testing Mercurial after you've installed it</h1> <p>The easiest way to check that Mercurial is installed properly is to just type the following at the command prompt:</p> <pre> hg </pre> <p>This command should print a useful help message. If it does, other Mercurial commands should work fine for you.</p> <h1>Configuration notes</h1> <p>The default editor for commit messages is 'notepad'. You can set the EDITOR (or HGEDITOR) environment variable to specify your preference or set it in mercurial.ini:</p> <pre> [ui] editor = whatever </pre> <h1>Reporting problems</h1> <p>Before you report any problems, please consult the <a href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial">Mercurial web site</a> and see if your question is already in our list of <a href="http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/FAQ">Frequently Answered Questions</a> (the "FAQ"). <p>If you cannot find an answer to your question, please feel free to send mail to the Mercurial mailing list, at <a href="mailto:mercurial@selenic.com">mercurial@selenic.com</a>. <b>Remember</b>, the more useful information you include in your report, the easier it will be for us to help you!</p> <p>If you are IRC-savvy, that's usually the fastest way to get help.
