Actually, there's no hgrc file in the .hg directory.
Aha. That is one normal state among many. It means that you have no
default parent repository. That is not the particular normal state
you want to be in, that's all.
Something's broken in Mercurial if you did and have no hgrc; hg clone
should initialize hgrc with a default parent. (For the record; I see
you figured that out below.)
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?
You wanna see something cool? Just put
[paths]
default = http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta
in .hgrc and watch things start working. Alternatively, you could do
hg pull http://hg.debian.org/hg/xemacs/xemacs-beta
every time.
