I am a bit new to hg and while I am familiar with the python-based repo tool (used in project like the Android Open Source Project) I am not aware of one for Mercurial. Is there such a tool for hg?

I'm not very familiar with repo, but my understanding was that it allowed them to construct a project out of lots of smaller repositories.

If that's the case then it's just built in. Subrepositories.

  • Is subrepo stable? I have heard the feature is not too mature. – K. H. Nov 22 '11 at 19:47
  • They've been around since 1.3 (July 2009), and were made core in 1.4.x sometime I think. We're now on 2.0. Pretty stable these days as far as I know. – Paul S Nov 23 '11 at 02:17

Edlund was kind enough to open-source their repoman tool, which was directly inspired by the Android project's repo tool as I understand the history.
