extend network protocol to stop clients from locking servers
now all repositories have capabilities slot, tuple with list of names.
if 'unbundle' capability present, repo supports push where client does
not need to lock server. repository classes that have unbundle capability
also have unbundle method.
implemented for ssh now, will be base for push over http.
unbundle protocol acts this way. server tells client what heads it
has during normal negotiate step. client starts unbundle by repeat
server's heads back to it. if server has new heads, abort immediately.
otherwise, transfer changes to server. once data transferred, server
locks and checks heads again. if heads same, changes can be added.
else someone else added heads, and server aborts.
if client wants to force server to add heads, sends special heads list of
'force'.

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/ add_path (you need only add_path.exe in the zip file) http://www.barisione.org/apps.html#add_path 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 and add_path.exe 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.
