TortoiseHG uses Mercurial to read the configuration files. In fact, TortoiseHg has nothing at all to do with ui.ssh. Mercurial reads that field itself during push/pull operations. Perhaps Mercurial itself changed it's search paths between your previous version and hg-1.4. Using 'hg showconfig --debug' from inside your repository may prove interesting. -- Steve Borho ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
