Huh. Yeah, adding that in made "hg log" work again.

This happened to all the repositories in the backup of the old ubuntu
12.04 filesystem, and to repositories copied from my other ubuntu 12.04
machine. Possibly one of the extensions I had installed? The old .hgrc
has...

[extensions]
hgext.convert=
hgext.record=
hgext.purge=
#rebase=
hgext.bookmarks =
#hggit =

(The only one I ever really used was hg record.)

Dreamhost still has 12.04.5 on the server, but at least the .5 seems to
have upgraded Mercurial to a version from 2011:

$ hg --version
Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 2.0.2)

So according to that repository version list you sent me last month it
should now be able to handle current repository formats if I rsync the
www directory from the new box. (Fingers crossed...)

Thanks,

Rob
