Fix default clone destination The default clone wasn't working: $ hg clone hg abort: repository hg/.hg not found! This was because we were creating the destination directory from the default, then checking whether it existed to determine whether to expand the path.

#!/bin/sh

mkdir a
cd a
hg init
echo foo > b
hg add b
hg ci -m "b" -d "0 0"

chmod -w .hg

cd ..

hg clone a b
cd b
hg verify

cd ..

chmod +w a/.hg # let test clean up
