.. module:: nonhg
	:synopsis: Describe using TortoiseHg as a front-end to other VCS

This chapter describes the three most popular Mercurial extensions for
interoperating with *foreign* VCS systems.  See also `Repository
Conversion <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/RepositoryConversion>`_

Perfarce (Perforce)
===================

* `Perfarce <http://www.kingswood-consulting.co.uk/hg/perfarce/>`_ home page.
* `Mercurial for Perforce users <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/PerforceConcepts>`_

This extension modifies the remote repository handling so that repository
paths that resemble::

	p4://p4server[:port]/clientname

cause operations on the named p4 client specification on the p4 server.
The client specification must already exist on the server before using
this extension. Making changes to the client specification Views causes
problems when synchronizing the repositories, and should be avoided.

Five built-in Mercurial commands are overridden.

outgoing::

	If the destination repository name starts with p4:// then this
	reports files affected by the revision(s) that are in the local
	repository but not in the p4 depot.

push::

	If the destination repository name starts with p4:// then this
	exports changes from the local repository to the p4 depot. If no
	revision is specified then all changes since the last p4 changelist
	are pushed. In either case, all revisions to be pushed are foled
	into a single p4 changelist.  Optionally the resulting changelist is
	submitted to the p4 server, controlled by the --submit option to
	push, or by setting **perfarce.submit** to True.  If the option
	**perfarce.keep** is False then after a successful submit the files
	in the p4 workarea will be deleted.

pull::

	If the source repository name starts with p4:// then this imports
	changes from the p4 depot, automatically creating merges of
	changelists submitted by hg push.  If the config option
	**perfarce.keep** is False then the import does not leave files in
	the p4 workarea, otherwise the p4 workarea will be updated with the
	new files.

incoming::

	If the source repository name starts with p4:// then this
	reports changes in the p4 depot that are not yet in the local
	repository.

clone::

	If the source repository name starts with p4:// then this
	creates the destination repository and pulls all changes from
	the p4 depot into it.

*TortoiseHg Integration*

When the perfarce extension is enabled, it adds a :guilabel:`start revision`
configurable option to the clone tool, and a :guilabel:`Perforce` menu
to the Repository Explorer.  The menu has two items:

identity::

	Finds the tip Perforce changelist in your local repository and
	selects it in the changelog window.

pending::

	Detects pending Perforce changelists that have been "push"ed to your
	Perforce client but have not been submitted, or have not been pulled
	back.  This opens the pending changelist dialog so that you can view
	these pending changelists and either submit or revert them.

*Installation*

Perfarce comes bundled with TortoiseHg 1.0 Windows installers, so you
enable perfarce by simply adding it to your Mercurial.ini or a
repository's hgrc like this::

	[extensions]
	perfarce=
 
hgsubversion (SVN)
==================

* `hgsubversion <http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hgsubversion/wiki/Home>`_ home page
* `hgsubversion Extension <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HgSubversion>`_ wiki page
* `Working with Subversion Repositories <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/WorkingWithSubversion>`_

hgsubversion, as it's name implies, allows you to use Mercurial as a
client to a Subversion server.  It can also be used to do straight
conversions of Subversion repositories into Mercurial.

*Installation*

TortoiseHg Windows installers come with the python-svn bindings that
hgsubversion requires, so one only needs to clone the hgsubversion
repository to your local computer::

	hg clone http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hgsubversion/ C:\hgsvn

Then enable the extension in your Mercurial.ini file, specifying the
hgsubversion folder inside the cloned repository::

	[extensions]
	hgsubversion = C:\hgsvn\hgsubversion

You can verify that worked by typing :command:`hg help hgsubversion`

See the hgsubversion wiki for details of use.

.. warning::
	When doing a clone of a Subversion server, it is highly recommended
	to clone only the first few revisions, then pull the rest.  Clone's
	failure behavior is to delete the entire incomplete cloned
	repository.  Pull is much more forgiving.

*TortoiseHg Integration*

Imported Subversion changesets will display the original Subversion
checkin number in the Repository Explorer browser.

hg-git (git)
============ 

* `hg-git <http://hg-git.github.com/>`_ home page
* `hg-git Extension <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HgGit>`_ wiki page
* `Mercurial for Git users <http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/GitConcepts>`_

hg-git, as its name implies, allows you to use Mercurial as a
client to a git server.  It can also be used to do straight conversions
of Git repositories into Mercurial.

*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 :command:`hg help hggit`

Current versions of TortoiseHg include dulwich version 0.6.0.  We
recommend to use hg-git version 0.2.2 with this version of dulwich.

See the hggit documentation for details of use.

Beware the 'incoming' command appears broken when speaking with git
repositories, and 'outgoing' does not show much useful info. So you are
restricted to simple push and pull commands (not uncommon for extensions
that speak with external revision control tools).
