Hello, Thanks to Neil Schemenauer, we now have some Mercurial mirrors hosted at http://code.python.org/hg/ Here are the URLs for each of the available repositories: - http://code.python.org/hg/trunk/ - http://code.python.org/hg/branches/py3k/ - http://code.python.org/hg/branches/release2.5-maint/ For Mercurial beginners, each of the URLs above references both a human-readable Web interface to browse the repositories (view changesets, subscribe to an RSS feed, annotate source files...), and a machine-queryable address to "clone" the repositories for local, offline use. That is, if you run "hg clone http://code.python.org/hg/trunk/", you'll get a "trunk" subdirectory containing the whole trunk history in a local repository, as well as a working copy. You can then do, e.g. "hg annotate setup.py" at light speed. The Mercurial mirrors are sync'ed with the SVN repo every 5 minutes. They are read-only, that is you cannot push to them.

But can we push branches up to our personal directories on code.python.org like we can with bzr?
