I had to change computer the other day. So one of the preparations was to collect info about all the HG repositories scattered here and there in the hard drive: I had to collect the local path in the hard drive and source path. I need local path because I also need to see if there's any *ignored* files that I had to move them out first. Well, I suppose I could also move the whole working copy (local repository) folder out of the hard drive first -- but for that, I need to know where it is beforehand (cf below).
It turns out to be quite a tough task. If the repository is not registered for some reason, it won't be shown in Hg Workbench. The source path has to be found in Hg Workbench, while the local path has to be found in Repository Settings dialog. It would be nice to conceive a way to export some essential infos into a file, at least the source paths of all registered repository. I understand that this use case is not very common -- we don't change computer everyday after all -- so I'd be OK if this is some kind of "Advanced function" hidden inside THg. Don't hesitate to give your opinion on this topic.
