Hg Add Repository Script

Initialize Mercurial repositories from a web browser.

This script was designed to run on a PHP-enabled web server that hosts Mercurial (Hg) repositories. It will initialize a new repository under the specified name and create the HGRC file with the description and contact information.

INSTALLATION:

Extract the add.php script and open it in an editor (Dreamweaver, Vim, Notepad).

Locate the 'User Settings' section and change the path to the Mercurial repositories on the server's drive.

$hgpath = "/path/to/your/repos/"; //File path to Mercurial repositories.

Copy the file to a location on your web server. Make sure the server has permissions to run the script. Configure your web server to restrict access if necessary.
