I did the following:
hg clone ...somelink.to.repo.in.hg... Giga
cd Giga
ls (...it shows me giga.txt file exist in Giga directory)
if prompted multiple times for user credentials in mercurial. Setup Mercurial_Keyring and then
this question comes which nobody explained in an easy way.
??? how to make the [auth] xx.prefix = servername/hg_or_something work for all repositories under servername/hg location either if I use servername, servername's IP or servername's FQDN ?
Final ANSWER: Arun • 2 minutes ago −
OK, I put this in ~/.hgrc (Linux/Unix -home directory's .hgrc hidden file) or Windows users %UserProfile%/mercurial.ini or %HOME%/mercurial.ini file.
[auth]
default1.schemes = http https
default1.prefix = hg_merc_server/hg
default1.username = c123456
default2.schemes = http https
default2.prefix = hg_merc_server.company.com/hg
default2.username = c123456
default3.schemes = http https
default3.prefix = 10.211.222.321/hg
default3.username = c123456
Now, I can checkout using either Server/IP/Server's FQDN.
