I have absolutely no idea how to get started with Mercurial. I used Subversion once, but this is all weird and confusing. Can you help me?

We're really happy to announce that we now have a really great introduction to Mercurial, called HgInit, available at http://hginit.com. It walks you through from knowing nothing about about Mercurial—or even nothing about source control—to knowing all the basics of Mercurial usage. If you're not sure how to get started, give the tutorial a try. It'll help you realize how easy Mercurial is to use, and you'll be all set up to start getting the most out of Kiln. |

I haven't taken a look at the hginit tutorial yet, but I can tell you that I was in your shoes yesterday morning. I spent most of the day reading and working through the examples here: http://hgbook.red-bean.com/read/ Now I feel pretty comfortable with Mercurial. Not an expert by any means, but I set up a pretty complex repository with lots of subrepositories, hooks, hgignore files - the whole ball of wax - on my webserver today, and everything's running fine. So, if you've got a day to devote to it, check out the book (in addition to the hginit tutorial, which I'm sure is excellent), and work through the examples that are contained in it. |
