TortoiseHG and hgsubversion (Windows): "no module named hgsubversion"

Question

I have installed the newest version of TortoiseHG for Windows from https://tortoisehg.bitbucket.io/download/index.html (2.8.1)

I did

hg clone http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hgsubversion .

And have the correct path set in mercurial.ini:

[extensions]
hgsubversion = C:\hgextensions\hgsubversion\hgsubversion

If I do:

hg version --svn

I can see that hgsubversion seems to be installed correctly:

Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 2.6.2)

hgsubversion: 32f6b970c762
Subversion: 1.6.16
bindings: SWIG

But when I want to clone a SVN repository (any example from the web) it says:

abort: No module named hgsubversion!

What is wrong here?

I had the same problem. Try to update hgsubversion to the c6e9889dba27 - it works for me.

This is harmful advice, because it means the hgsubversion maintainers don't get a bug report. – durin42 Jul 17 '13 at 16:49
Harmful long term, but it sure got me out of a tight fix while a bug makes its way through a process! – codekaizen Jul 19 '13 at 00:20
The hgsubversion maintainers don't check all about hgsubversion questions on SO? – SSpoke Jan 02 '14 at 00:12
