Socket timeout

[Cédric Krier]

Hi,

I manage a Mercurial repository with Gentoo Ebuilds at
http://hg.tryton.org/tryton-overlay
I use Mercurial because I find it to be very easy to use (compare to
other DVCS) but support of mercurial for Gentoo overlay is jeopardized
under the pretext of being buggy [1].
The complaint seems to be related to a missing timeout [2]. I'm a little
bit surprise about that. I was supposing that the sockets open by
mercurial were using the default socket timeout of the system.
Unfortunately, I could not reproduce the problem nor receive more
information about the problem. But could someone confirm how the socket
timeout or server hanging are managed in mercurial?
