I'm looking for a book (or equivalent) to help me go from using hg to basically do the same things I do with svn to using hg as it was really intended. It should cover the internals and how to extend hg etc.

Joel Spolsky released Hg Init: a Mercurial tutorial recently. It looks nice and easy to read.

Mercurial is a modern, open source, distributed version control system, and a compelling upgrade from older systems like Subversion. In this user-friendly, six-part tutorial, Joel Spolsky teaches you the key concepts.

  • The preview shows a lot of setting up Visual Studios and not a log about HG. Its hard to tell from the preview how detailed the full videos are. Do you have a ringing endorsement? – Arthur Ulfeldt Mar 01 '10 at 20:04
  • No endorsement dude. I'm a paying customer and have found them to be a excellent way to get moving faster than reading. Did you read the video summaries at the end of the page? – Ozzie Perez Mar 02 '10 at 14:32
  • P.S. One caveat is that the site is geared more toward ASP.Net MVC and Rails developers... :) – Ozzie Perez Mar 02 '10 at 14:35
