Answer from Mark (https://stackoverflow.com/a/4066654/142207) should work for SVN and Git (although Git configuration did not work for me).

But if you need it to work with Mercurial repo, create a job with following script:

hg remove -A || true
hg add ../../config.xml
hg add ../../*/config.xml
if [ ! -z "`hg status -admrn`" ]; then
    hg commit -m "Scheduled commit" -u fill_in_the@blank.com
    hg push
fi
