 No, that's not the same thing.  Vladimir at least was able to connect
 to the repository. 
Well, by 'same thing', I meant that 'hg tip' gives me the same information
that Vladimir was reporting:

changeset:   4310:a6d7e031a10b
tag:         tip
user:        Mike Sperber <sperber(a)deinprogramm.de&gt;

 What does `grep default .hg/hgrc' tell you? 
Actually, there's no hgrc file in the .hg directory. The contents are

$ ls -al .hg
drwxr-xr-x+  3 rick Users     0 Feb  1 16:10 .
drwxr-xr-x+ 16 rick Users     0 Feb  1 16:10 ..
-rw-r--r--   1 rick Users    57 Dec  7 17:05 00changelog.i

This is on Cygwin; however, my Linux box has exactly the same contents and gives exactly
the same message to 'hg pull'. Perhaps I did the wrong thing when I first got the
source. I'm pretty sure I ran

hg clone http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta

when I first got the source. Maybe I need to start over?

 If it's
 ssh://hg.debian.org//hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta, then you probably are
 having problems with your ssh-agent (need to ssh-add, maybe?)
 Otherwise, if something other than
 http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta is returned, you can try
 setting it to that.  This may not work (eg, if your original repo was
 cloned from one of our experimental repos or if it's a CVS workspace
 ;-), in which case you'll have to do a new

 hg clone http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta

 Note that Mercurial's default behavior is somewhat inconvenient for
 non-core-developers.  You can get "cvs update" behavior with "hg pull
-u"
 which automatically follows up an "hg pull" with an "hg update".  I
 don't know if there's a cvsrc-like way to make "-u" the default option
 for pull.

 You can also enable the fetch extension by adding

 [extensions]
 hgext.fetch =

 to ~/.hgrc.  This performs an hg pull then an hg update, followed by
 calling your favorite 3-way merge program for any files that have
 conflicts.

Scratch that. I was looking through some of the Mercurial-related messages that I've
saved, and I found one from Michael Sperber on 12/7 (see
http://calypso.tux.org/pipermail/xemacs-beta/2007-December/012893.html) that gives the
following commands for initially getting the source:

hg init xemacs
cd xemacs
hg pull http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta

*That's* how I initially got the source. It looks like I should have used 'hg
clone' instead?
