* Package name : mercurial Version : 0.4e Upstream Author : Matt Mackall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://selenic.com/mercurial * License : GPL Description : scalable distributed SCM Mercurial is a very efficient distributed SCM. It is very similar to git (the SCM used by Linus for the kernel), but does not take so many place to save data (it stores diff instead of plain file for modified files) >From the upstream author, mercurial is a new proof-of-concept SCM. The goals are: * to initially be as simple (and thereby hackable) as possible * to be as scalable as possible * to be memory, disk, and bandwidth efficient * to be able to do "clone/branch and pull/sync" style * development As the interface can still change a lot (it new software), I will not write the missing man page immediately (so it will not be uploaded in Debian for now).
