I've recently starting using mercurial (using v0.9.5), and am using the Mercurial bundle (2 Aug 2007 version - the latest, I think). Sometimes it works great, and sometimes an attempt to use it fails with "abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!". I've searched the list archives, and found one reference to this issue:
http://lists.macromates.com/pipermail/textmate/2007-November/023219.html
But I don't understand the discussion, nor how to apply it to my project. How can I create a TextMate project that has files from several different nested directories, without having the Mercurial bundle fail to work?
Thanks,

i've investigated it a bit but found no time to go further. so no solution over here. perhaps the author of the bundle or someone else who is into bundle-development could take a look - that would be great.
I emailed the maintainer of the mercurial bundle (FredB) a couple weeks ago about another issue and have not heard back from him. Does anyone know if he is still maintaining the bundle? If not, anyone care to step up? There are quite a few areas of the bundle that could be improved. Personally I'd like to see some mercurial queues support :-)

It's not that I don't want to maintain the bundle anymore, it's just that I don't have the time to work on it now.
Patches are welcome though, I can test them on my side, then commit them. If a few people are willing to test them too, that would be even faster.
Beyond that, I'm aware that this bundle needs a major overhaul, but this requires even more time and help.
So basically, contributions are welcome.
Yi, sorry I didn't answer you, but I don't even have the time to _try_ Mercurial queues...

Coincidentally I made reference to how these virtual groups on-top of the file system complicates commands a few days ago¹ and said it was one of the motivating factors to simply not support it in the future.
So don’t expect a fix for this, sorry.

it's easy to understand the complexity such virtual grouping introduces. nevertheless i really would like to see this grouping in tm 2, too :).
so i went off, created a folder and symlinked my project and framework into it. the svn-bundle is fine with it but the mercurial-bundle is not. i assume that the problem lies in the fact that mercurial does not search for its .hg folder where the file, one has given along, resides. in short: it doesn't care where the file resides, it just tries to find it's .hg folder. my idea would be to take the first selected file ( or just the current file if nothing is selected ), set the working directory to the one of the file, run hg root to get the project-path, set the working directory to the project-path and run the command on the file as usual. this should work fine with many files within the same hg-root, but of course not with virtual grouping or adventurous symlinking :)
ok... dreamed enough :)
Hey Fred, Just out of curiosity, would you be opposed to porting the bundle over to Python? It would be much easier for me to contribute if it were written in Python.
Cheers, Yi
