- mercurial branch graph
- admin interface for performing user/permission managments as well as repository
managment
- backup scripts can do backup of whole app and send it over scp to desired location
- setup project descriptions and info inside built in db for easy, non
file-system operations
- added cache with invalidation on push/repo managment for high performance and
always upto date data.
- rss /atom feed customizable
- future support for git
- based on pylons 1.0 / sqlalchemy 0.6
**Incoming**
- code review based on hg-review (when it's stable)
- git support (when vcs can handle it)
- other cools stuff that i can figure out
.. note::
This software is still in beta mode. I don't guarantee that it'll work.

Installation
-------------
.. note::
I recomend to install tip version of vcs while the app is in beta mode.
- create new virtualenv and activate it
- download hg app from default (not demo) branch from bitbucket and run
'python setup.py install' this will install all required dependencies needed
- goto pylons_app/lib and run python db_manage.py it should create all
needed tables and an admin account. You can play with this file if you wish to
use different db than sqlite
- edit file repositories.config and change the [paths] where you keep your
mercurial repositories, remember about permissions for accessing this dir by
hg app.
- run paster serve development.ini
the app should be available at the 127.0.0.1:5000
- use admin account you created to login.
- default permissions on each repository is read, and owner is admin. So remember
to update those.
