Hi,

This release contains bug fixes and a few minor improvements.

Doc & download: http://cheeseshop.python.org/pypi/hgsvn

Improvements:

      * Automatically generate .hgignore file. Not only does it produce
        cleaner output for commands like hg status, but it speeds things
        up as well.
      * hgpullsvn is more robust in the face of errors and user
        interruptions.
      * Try to be Windows-compatible by not using the commands module.
      * Remove dependency on the pysvn library; we use the XML output
        option of SVN commands instead.

Bug fixes:

      * Fix a bug in parent repository detection.
      * Detect the wicked case where the SVN branch has been overwritten
        with contents of another branch (witnessed with Nose trunk and
        0.10-dev branch). We can't properly handle this situation, so
        fail with an explicit message.
      * svn info on base repository URL does not always succeed, use the
        specific project URL instead (reported by Larry Hastings).


To answer a question raised on this mailing-list: there is no public hg
(or SVN) repository currently. I'll try to find a place where to host it
soon. If you want to suggest one, you're welcome :-)


Antoine.
