Mercurial stuck “waiting for lock”

Question

Got a bluescreen in windows while cloning a mercurial repository.

After reboot, I now get this message for almost all hg commands:

c:\\src\\>hg commit
wai         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem on Win 7. The solution was to remove following files:

1. .hg/store/phaseroots
2. .hg/wlock

As for .hg/store/lock - there was no such file.
