Add bash_completion to contrib Contributed by "Alexis S. L. Carvalho" <alexis@cecm.usp.br> Attached is a file that implements bash completion for hg. Just reading it from your .bashrc should be enough to use it - I think: I'm using the /etc/bash_completion from debian and I'm not sure whether it sets some important option. It gets the list of commands, aliases and options from the output of hg help and then adds some specific stuff - e.g. completing update with tags; pull and push with path aliases and directories, etc.

#!/bin/sh

mkdir test
cd test
echo foo>foo
hg init
hg addremove
hg commit -m 1
hg verify
hg serve -p 20059 > /dev/null &
sleep 1 # wait for server to be started
cd ..

hg clone http://localhost:20059/ copy
cd copy
hg verify
hg co
cat foo
hg manifest
hg pull

kill $!
