I am trying to clone some github repos locally with hggit. I am following tutorial instructions to do
$ hg clone git://github.com/schacon/hg-git.git
abort: repository git://github.com/schacon/hg-git.git not found!
$ hg clone git+ssh://git@github.com/schacon/hg-git.git
abort: repository git+ssh://git@github.com/schacon/hg-git.git not found!
I know I have hggit because the following works
$ python -c "import hggit"
$ head -n1 `which hg`
#!/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python
$ /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.6/Resources/Python.app/Contents/MacOS/Python -c "import hggit"
Also, I have another github repo that I regularly use with hg. I forgot how I initially got it to work, but I think it was a fresh repo that I pushed into github. In the folder where I do have a working repo, I have the following (paraphrased for privacy) in my .hg/hgrc:
github = git+ssh://git@github.com:myname/repo.git
[ui]
username = Fname Lname <email@gmail.com>
[extensions]
hgext.bookmarks =
hggit =
but of course there is no hgrc for the repo that I am just trying to clone.

Using additional features
Mercurial has the ability to add new features through the use of extensions. Extensions may add new commands, add options to existing commands, change the default
behavior of commands, or implement hooks.
Extensions are not loaded by default for a variety of reasons: they can increase startup overhead; they may be meant for advanced usage only; they may provide
potentially dangerous abilities (such as letting you destroy or modify history); they might not be ready for prime time; or they may alter some usual behaviors of
stock Mercurial. It is thus up to the user to activate extensions as needed.
To enable the "foo" extension, either shipped with Mercurial or in the Python search path, create an entry for it in your configuration file, like this:
[extensions]
foo =
You may also specify the full path to an extension:
[extensions]
myfeature = ~/.hgext/myfeature.py
To explicitly disable an extension enabled in a configuration file of broader scope, prepend its path with !:
[extensions]
# disabling extension bar residing in /path/to/extension/bar.py
bar = !/path/to/extension/bar.py
# ditto, but no path was supplied for extension baz
baz = !
disabled extensions:
acl hooks for controlling repository access
bookmarks track a line of development with movable markers
bugzilla hooks for integrating with the Bugzilla bug tracker
children command to display child changesets
churn command to display statistics about repository history
color colorize output from some commands
convert import revisions from foreign VCS repositories into Mercurial
eol automatically manage newlines in repository files
extdiff command to allow external programs to compare revisions
fetch pull, update and merge in one command
gpg commands to sign and verify changesets
graphlog command to view revision graphs from a shell
hgcia hooks for integrating with the CIA.vc notification service
hgk browse the repository in a graphical way
highlight syntax highlighting for hgweb (requires Pygments)
interhg expand expressions into changelog and summaries
keyword expand keywords in tracked files
mq manage a stack of patches
notify hooks for sending email notifications at commit/push time
pager browse command output with an external pager
parentrevspec
interpret suffixes to refer to ancestor revisions
patchbomb command to send changesets as (a series of) patch emails
progress show progress bars for some actions
purge command to delete untracked files from the working directory
rebase command to move sets of revisions to a different ancestor
record commands to interactively select changes for commit/qrefresh
relink recreates hardlinks between repository clones
schemes extend schemes with shortcuts to repository swarms
share share a common history between several working directories
transplant command to transplant changesets from another branch
win32mbcs allow the use of MBCS paths with problematic encodings
win32text perform automatic newline conversion
zeroconf discover and advertise repositories on the local network
Update: Fix So the problem was that I did not have a '$HOME/.hgrc' file to use the extensions. Once I added this file and the extension information, everything worked fine!
Here is a thought, maybe its not fully installed. I have had similar problems and found compiling it manually instead of using 'easy_install' to work better. I had problems where the version of 'dulwhich' wasn't installed properly, so things were broken (probably similarly to yours).
I outlined the installation process here on my blog -> http://andypeters.org/post/5607486048/hg-git-installation-woes-on-a-mac
Here is a quick summary for installation.
- Download. I have been using 0.7.
Install dulwich. Notice the use of --pure. I'm not 100% sure what that means, but my understanding is that it is a python thing to make a different/clean install of it.
> sudo python setup.py --pure installDownload hg-git. I have linked to bitbucket because i assume you have mercurial working.
Install hg-git
> sudo python setup.py install
Hope that helps.
On a Debian-based GNU/Linux distribution, in addition to
$ sudo apt-get install mercurial-git
I had to add the following lines to my ~/.hgrc file:
[extensions]
hggit = /usr/share/pyshared/hgext/git
my config on ubuntu 14.04 (cf /usr/share/doc/mercurial-git/README.Debian from package mercurial-git):
[extensions]
hgext.bookmarks =
hgext.git =
The file to add this is : ~/.hgrc
To enable hg-git (note the '-') in mercurial, you need something like:
[extensions]
hg-git=e:\hg-extensions\hg-git\hggit
