Dear Julien, I seem to remember checking this when I was packaging the micro:bit toolchain and finding their different approaches: - python-hgapi uses the Mercurial command line for its work - python-hglib uses the internal Mercurial API for its work python-hgapi was packaged solely as a dependency for yotta. Having neither the experience with hg internally, nor the desire, I did not got through the source to migrate from one to the other. Please let me know if you're happy to close the report. Cheers, Nick
