What is the purpose of the Local Repository path and remote repository URL in the Mercurial Source Provider settings?



  • Do you have to specify both of them? Should I point them both to the same repository or is it supposed to be setup so that you have a build master staging repository and then the main repository?

    Our repos are on the same machine that we are running BuildMaster on. How do we set it up correctly?

    Product: BuildMaster
    Version: 4.1.2



  • If you haven't seen it already, here is a quick guide for Integrating BuildMaster and Mercurial.

    The idea with the local/remote is that changes will be pulled from the remote (http) repository to a local (disk) repository.

    At some point, we'd like to update this extension to behave like the Git extension, where you simply enter a repository URL, and a local repository is automatically created.



  • If the repository to be used for builds/deployments exists on the same machine as BuildMaster, is it necessary to enter a remote repository URL?

    I had already reviewed that document and it is a bit light on the details.



  • The remote repo is not required if the local one should be used.
