.. _subrepos:

=============================================

working with RhodeCode and mercurial subrepos

=============================================

example usage of Subrepos with RhodeCode::

    ## init a simple repo

    hg init repo1                                                                                                                                                                                         

    cd repo1

    echo "file1" > file1

    hg add file1 

    hg ci --message "initial file 1"

    #clone subrepo we want to add

    hg clone http://rc.local/subrepo

    ## use path like url to existing repo in RhodeCode

    echo "subrepo = http://rc.local/subrepo" > .hgsub

    hg add .hgsub

    hg ci --message "added remote subrepo"

In file list of repo1 you will see a connected subrepo at revision it was

during cloning.

Clicking in subrepos link should send you to proper repository in RhodeCode

cloning repo1 will also clone attached subrepository.

Next we can edit the subrepo data, and push back to RhodeCode. This will update

both of repositories.
