Oh, we try to be very paranoid in Mercurial :-) That's why you don't see any support for copying hgrc files when you clone and why hg wont trust hgrc files not owned by you: it should be safe to do

 cd ~collegue/src/python  hg tip

So, is the implication therefore that there would be resistance to having some way of making a setting which is copied on clone, which says that you can't commit in this repository unless you have the following extensions enabled?

Or is the fact that it's only saying "you must have an extension called win32text enabled" and not actually enabling code directly, sufficiently secure to make it acceptable?

Paul.
