auto update with a central repo

[Peter Bourgon]

What does "hg log" say? What about "hg status"?

Its not just a matter of running update though, if I don't include "changegroup = hg update >&2" in the hgrc file then nothing gets update. If I think do "hg update" it does say its updated 1 file and when I look at the file I see the same exact thing. The file I updated does have a new timestamp but the changes are simply not in the file. Its still in its org state.
