the 'Duplicate Location' error message in your screenshot would indicate that there is already an update site setup for that URL.

In the screen before doing the 'add repository' look at the list of current update sites and you may find one for Mercurial already. Make sure it is selected and a list of all the features for that update site will be listed for you. Then you can select the MercurialEclipse and MercurialBinaries features and install then in Eclipse

The Mercurial Eclipse homepage is here: http://javaforge.com/project/HGE.

They have installation instructions there:

[...] you can get the plugin easily using the Eclipse Update Manager, just click Help → Software Updates in Eclipse. The Eclipse Update Site for MercurialEclipse is available at this URL:

http://cbes.javaforge.com/update

If you are not familiar with getting new software and updates to Eclipse, please read this article.
