Mercurial is written in Python with platform independence in mind. As a result, Mercurial is available on Microsoft Windows, GNU/Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris 11 Express and others. You can either download a binary package for the system of your choice or build it from sources.
Download Mercurial Client For Mac
# Debian/Ubuntu$ apt-get install mercurial# Fedora$ dnf install mercurial# Gentoo$ emerge mercurial# Mac OS (homebrew)$ brew install mercurial# FreeBSD$ cd /usr/ports/devel/mercurial$ make install# Solaris 11 Express$ pkg install SUNWmercurial
The Hg-Git plugin can convert commits/changesets losslessly from one system to another, so you can push via a Mercurial repository and another Mercurial client can pull it. In theory, the changeset IDs should not change, although this may not hold true for complex histories.
SourceTree providesspecial support for hosted DVCS systems such as Bitbucket andGitHub. Using a single SourceTree client, you can work with localrepositories and hosted repositories in multiple source controlsystems. Why not install SourceTreeand giveit a try to see if it is a fit for you?
SourceTree is a free Git and Mercurial GUI client for Windows and macOS. Git is a popular version control system (VCS) originally authored by Linus Torvalds for development of the Linux kernel back in 2005.
Mercurial is used by developers, and advanced users who need the very latest changes to the software (before releases occur). Software users generally do not need Mercurial; typically they will download official file releases made available by the project instead.
The standard way to modify the contents of your repository is using a Mercurial client as detailed in Distributed revision control with Mercurial. Refer to the Getting Started section for how to make your first commit to your new repository.
However, as @denis points out, as of July 2017, the binaries on the download page of the Git website are for 10.9 or newer. If you look at where the binary files are actually hosted, on SourceForge, there is an a FAQ about which version of the binary installer to download if you have an older version of Mac OS X/macOS:
So for 10.8, you'll want to download any binary installer that ends with the name -snow-leopard. There are several such binary installers, but the one with the most recent version of Git is git-2.3.5-intel-universal-snow-leopard.dmg. Here is a direct download link for it (23.1 MB): -osx-installer/files/git-2.3.5-intel-universal-mavericks.dmg/download
As alternative to command line git tool you may want GUI app. I recommend Atlassian SourceTree. This is really nice and powerful Git/Mercurial client. I tried many GUI applications and only SourceTree satisfied me. Application package already has builtin Git and Mercurial.
The Araxis Merge compare utility cannot be used directly for file merging by the AccuRev client, which passes quoted filenames and expects a particular return code on success. To work around this, create a file ac-merge-shim.sh in /usr/local/bin/ (or another location of your choosing) with the following content:
Merge integrates tightly with Perforce. Araxis provides a Perforce File System Plugin to enable Merge to browse Perforce depots directly. This means that, for example, you can compare branches of source code directly within a depot without syncing them to the client workspace. Merge is also able to populate the Versions button drop-down versions menu with other revisions of each file being compared. For more information, see Comparing Text Files (or Typed/Pasted Text).
Merge integrates well with Subversion. Araxis provides a Subversion File System Plugin to enable Merge to browse Subversion repositories directly. This means that, for example, you can compare branches of source code directly within a repository without syncing them to the client workspace. Merge is also able to populate the Versions button drop-down versions menu with other revisions of each file being compared. For more information, see Comparing Text Files (or Typed/Pasted Text).
Since there are so many good tutorials (1234) on setting up mercurial archive access already, I thought I'd show how to set up TortoiseHG, a graphical interface to the archive. I completed this setup in Ubuntu, but it should be easily adaptable to Mac, and mostly similar to Windows.
To learn how to use the MercurialEclipse plugin follow the MercurialEclipse Wiki. MercurialEclipse requires the Mercurial client (hg) to be pre-installed on your system. Refer to Mercurial website for more details on that.
Git is a distributed version control system, meaning the entire history of the repository is transferred to the client during the cloning process. For projects containing large files, particularly large files that are modified regularly, this initial clone can take a huge amount of time, as every version of every file has to be downloaded by the client. Git LFS (Large File Storage) is a Git extension developed by Atlassian, GitHub, and a few other open source contributors, that reduces the impact of large files in your repository by downloading the relevant versions of them lazily. Specifically, large files are downloaded during the checkout process rather than during cloning or fetching.
Git LFS is seamless: in your working copy you'll only see your actual file content. This means you can use Git LFS without changing your existing Git workflow; you simply git checkout, edit, git add, and git commit as normal. git clone and git pull operations will be significantly faster as you only download the versions of large files referenced by commits that you actually check out, rather than every version of the file that ever existed.
To use Git LFS, you will need a Git LFS aware host such as Bitbucket Cloud or Bitbucket Data Center. Repository users will need to have the Git LFS command-line client installed, or a Git LFS aware GUI client such as Sourcetree. Fun fact: Steve Streeting, the Atlassian developer who invented Sourcetree, is also a major contributor to the Git LFS project, so Sourcetree and Git LFS work together rather well.
Once Git LFS is installed, you can clone a Git LFS repository as normal using git clone. At the end of the cloning process Git will check out the default branch (usually main), and any Git LFS files needed to complete the checkout process will be automatically downloaded for you. For example:
Rather than downloading Git LFS files one at a time, the git lfs clone command waits until the checkout is complete, and then downloads any required Git LFS files as a batch. This takes advantage of parallelized downloads, and dramatically reduces the number of HTTP requests and processes spawned (which is especially important for improving performance on Windows).
No explicit commands are needed to retrieve Git LFS content. However, if the checkout fails for an unexpected reason, you can download any missing Git LFS content for the current commit with git lfs pull:
Like git lfs clone, git lfs pull downloads your Git LFS files as a batch. If you know a large number of files have changed since the last time you pulled, you may wish to disable the automatic Git LFS download during checkout, and then batch download your Git LFS content with an explicit git lfs pull. This can be done by overriding your Git config with the -c option when you invoke git pull:
Git LFS typically only downloads the files needed for commits that you actually checkout locally. However, you can force Git LFS to download extra content for other recently modified branches using git lfs fetch --recent:
This is useful for batch downloading new Git LFS content while you're out at lunch, or if you're planning on reviewing work from your teammates and will not be able to download content later on due to limited internet connectivity. For example, you may wish to run git lfs fetch --recent before jumping on a plane!
Use this setting with care: if you have fast moving branches, this can result in a huge amount of data being downloaded. However it can be useful if you need to review interstitial changes on a branch, cherry picking commits across branches, or rewrite history.
The patch shows you the commit and the path to the LFS object, as well as who added it, and when it was committed. You can simply checkout the commit, and Git LFS will download the file if needed and place it in your working copy.
In some situations you may want to only download a subset of the available Git LFS content for a particular commit. For example, when configuring a CI build to run unit tests, you may only need your source code, so may want to exclude heavyweight files that aren't necessary to build your code.
The installer file will download to your system. Follow the prompts, choose the required installer option. After the installation process completed, verify the installation was successful by running the below command on the terminal:
Note that most of these software packages come supplied with a pre-compiledversion of the library and everything else needed to stitch photographs- You probably don't need to download anything from here.
Most front ends for Panorama Tools use the PTStitcher tool to dothe actual stitching, this has no available source-code, so you may need to download PTStitcherseparately or use the included PTmender replacement forPTStitcher which is still under development. Note that hugin contains a drop-in Open Sourcereplacement for PTStitcher called nona.
Mercurial is a Source Code Control system by Selenic, it's key feature is the distributed nature of the system. This means that changes (commits) are stored in a local repository, which can be sent (pushed) to a central repository and which can be downloaded (pulled) by others. 2ff7e9595c
