Does SmartGit support working with Mercurial repositories?


The question is pretty much in the title. Does SmartGit supports working with Mercurial repos?

I've downloaded the evaluation version, but from what I can see it only supports opening git repos, which is contrary to one of the main statements they make on their frontpage:

SmartGit is an easy-to-use graphical user interface for Git, Mercurial and Subversion with optimized work-flows. SmartGit supports all Git and Mercurial features needed for every-day work in software development projects ...

Can anyone using SmartGit or familiar with it clarify on this? I really like the client.


Solution

  • Yes, SmartGit supports Mercurial repositories: just use Repository|Add or Create and enter the path of your local Mercurial repository there. In the same way you can clone a remote Mercurial repository, using Repository|Clone.
