Mercurial: Pull Other Dialog Box

The Mercurial Pull Other dialog box enables you to pull changesets from an external Mercurial repository and add them to your local repository.

In the Pull Other dialog, you need to specify the location of the Mercurial repository you want to pull from.

Repository URL: Type in the URL of the repository you want to pull from.

The IDE supports the following Mercurial URLs:

Protocol Access Method Example

file

Direct repository access (on local disk)

file:///repository_path

http

Access via WebDAV protocol to a Mercurial-aware server

http://[username[:password]@]hostname/repository_path

https

Access via HTTP protocol with SSL encryption

https://[username[:password]@]hostname/repository_path

static-http

Access via HTTP also, albeit slower, allows access to a Mercurial repository where you simply use a web server to publish the .hg directory as static content

static-http://hostname/repository_path

ssh

Access via SSH

ssh://hostname/repository_path
