I am trying for a while installing Hg-Git addon to my Windows 7 Operating system
I have crossed several difficulties like installing Python and other utilities described in this blog.
I had even after this manual problems and could not install this addon because of errors described in this log.
I searched google and I have found this manual
Now i have these errors showed in this log.
Any help with these errors? Thank you for your help.
In case it helps anyone, I have Windows 7 64bit and TortoiseHg and following their instructions was easy and worked without issue.
Installation
TortoiseHg Windows installers come with the python-git bindings (named
dulwich) that hg-git requires, so one only needs to clone the hg-git
repository to your local computer:
hg clone http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hg-git/ C:\hg-git
Then enable
hggit and bookmarks in your Mercurial.ini file:
[extensions]
bookmarks =
hggit = C:\hg-git\hggit
You can verify that
worked by typing hg help hggit
Ok i got it so ... For others - you need to clone this repo
HTTPS:
git clone https://github.com/jelmer/dulwich.git
SSH:
git clone git@github.com:jelmer/dulwich.git
or just download source - after that you need to go to its folder when you downloaded in command line type:
python setup.py install
You are done after you can simply do:
easy_install hg-git
On windows and make it work - so congratulations :-) Close.
I created a powershell script which does the installation in one step. The prereq is you have some build tools and python already installed:
