Pull/clone over SSH

[tnorth at bluewin.ch]

Hello,
Browsing the web archives of this list I found that message, which was about
pulling from remote host.

I am sorry but this don't seem to work for me, I got a "Not repo found" as
I try to use it. I think I don't understand the command's syntax...

ssh user at remotehost -L <x>:localhost:<x> hg serve -p <x>
hg pull http://localhost:<x>/

Where <x> is the port number.

Where do I have to indicate the respository's path ?
Is it right that the first command creates a tunnel between me and the remote
computer (so sends data to localhost) ?

Regards,
TNorth
