How can I add remote repositories in Mercurial?

Question

I am working with Git repositories in the following way:

• I have the master repository and several remotes on the different production machines.
• I am push

Answer 1

If you're on Unix and you have Git installed, you can use this bash function to readily add a path to the remotes without a text editor:

add-hg-path() {
    git config -f $(hg root)/.hg/hgrc --add paths.$1 $2
    awk '{$1=$1}1' $(hg root)/.hg/hgrc > /tmp/hgrc.tmp
    mv /tmp/hgrc.tmp $(hg root)/.hg/hgrc
}

Then invoke it with:

$ add-hg-path remote1 https://path.to/remote1

If someone would like to build a Powershell equivalent, I'd like to include that as well. Other potentials improvements include error checking on the parameters and factoring out the call to $(hg root).
