            Bug ID: 6921
           Summary: Automatically upload wheels on PyPI for each Mercurial
                    release
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: feature
          Priority: wish
         Component: Mercurial
          Assignee: bugzilla at mercurial-scm.org
          Reporter: pierre.augier at univ-grenoble-alpes.fr
                CC: mercurial-devel at mercurial-scm.org
    Python Version: ---

Python packaging has greatly improved and it's now very easy to install Python
applications with tools like pipx (https://github.com/pypa/pipx) or uv
(https://github.com/astral-sh/uv).

Then, it would be easy and fast to install Mercurial anywhere with

```
pipx install mercurial
# or
uv tool install mercurial
```

An advantage is that Mercurial is then installed in an isolated environment in
which the user can also easily install mercurial extensions, for example with

```
pipx inject mercurial hg-git hg-evolve
```

But wheels need to be available on PyPI to avoid compilation!
