[Python-Dev] PEP 385: Formatting of Hg checkin notifications (original) (raw)

I suspect my hg-fu is inadequate to at this point - I get an 'access to repository "hg.python.org/hooks" not permitted' error when I try to push the modified file to "ssh://hg@hg.python.org/hooks".

Try

ssh://hg@hg.python.org/repos/hooks

I think this is something that needs to be fixed: I fail to see the point of having this extra repos/ directory in the path (even though it's certainly useful to have them all in a separate directory on disk).

It's also unfortunate that hg complains it can't give access to /hooks, when the problem really is that the repository doesn't exist. I guess this is because it tries to create it, and then finds that it can't.

Regards, Martin
