vc-hg.el in Emacs

[Uwe Brauer]

Hi

The mercurial interface of GNU emacs, could an upgrade.
The change I described in recent mails is now available in the latest
emacs git version.[1]

In order to obtain it (Linux) do:

git clone git://git.savannah.gnu.org/emacs.git

If that is  blocked.
git clone http://git.savannah.gnu.org/r/emacs.git


cd ~/mygit/emacs
./autogen.sh
./configure
make bootstrap
make


I recommend to run
./configure --prefix=/opt/emacs25/

And if your are on debian-like systems:
 auto-apt run ./configure --prefix=/opt/emacs25/

In case of trouble in debian like system you need

 sudo apt-get build-dep emacs



Finally you do

 sudo make install

Or sudo make checkinstall to generate a debian package.

Enjoy

Regards

Uwe Brauer
