Hi,

There is the way to install Mercurial 2.7 at OS X using Brew:

1. clean files that the package installed:
/usr/local/share/man/man5/hgrc.5
/usr/local/share/man/man5/hgignore.5
/usr/local/share/man/man1/hg.1
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/hg*
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/mercurial*
/usr/local/bin/hg

2. install homebrew : http://brew.sh

3. brew install mercurial
