Make an issue ID a clickable link on TortoiseHg
/* Integrate with Issue Tracker */
Unfortunately, TortoiseHg doesn’t have the feature that integrates with an external issue tracker now. That feature was filed long before, but Bitbucket supports the integration of a repository and an issue tracker, so most developers couldn’t have strong motivation.
To implement functionality of issue tracker integration is hard for us, so one developer introduced “Commit Message Parsing” feature to Repository Explorer for TortoiseHg 1.0, which makes issue IDs clickable URLs.

Yeah, this feature is written in the manual, but most users didn’t know it since we didn’t provide friendly user interfaces for it. So I’d like to describe how to configure and use this in here.
Checkout SVN repository using TortoiseHg
/* Well done… */
I didn’t know Clone dialog of TortoiseHg 1.0 can be used to checkout Subversion repository without any hack. Did you know?
Anyway, this is a blog entry, not a tweet of Twitter, so I’ll put some explanation how to setup hgsubversion and TortoiseHg on Windows.

Using MQ with TortoiseHg
/* MQ support: Newly introduced in 0.9 */
A while ago, TortoiseHg 0.9.2 was released and I’m focusing the development for 0.10. It’s too late, but I would like to explain about MQ support on TortoiseHg. We already supported a part of MQ features, but you know it’s not enough to use MQ for daily work. So I had to open command prompt.

TotoiseHg Manual is well written documentation expected MQ features since I didn’t describe it… I hope you learn MQ support of TortoriseHg with this article.
