Hi! One thing that's good about TheOtherDVCS (tm) is that whenever you get
stuck, it says concrete steps you should follow (e.g. things you need to put
into your config file).

I just initialized new repo via "hg init", commited few things, then I decided
to put that repo into bitbucket. So I created bitbucket project and pushed into
that "hg push https://k_bx@bitbucket.org/k_bx/reponame". And after that, next
time I wanted to push new commits, I just did "hg push" and got error:

➤ hg push
pushing to default-push
abort: repository default-push not found!

So, only thing after this error-message that I'm left with is either:
1. google
2. look at another project's config (which I did)

What I suggest is to have this:

➤ hg push
pushing to default-push
abort: repository default-push not found!
Possible fix: put

[paths]
default = <path to your repo>

into your repository's .hg/hgrc config file.


What do you think?
