[9fans] Python/Mercurial error

2014-03-25 Thread Ramakrishnan Muthukrishnan
As I wrote in the previous email [1], I have Python and Mercurial compiled from sources. When I use it to pull the golang sources, I noticed the following error: $ hg clone -u release http://code.google.com/p/go [...] added 19559 ... updating to branch release-branch.go1.2 abort: invalid argument:
