| - | The latest Mercurial package available is for Mercurial 1.6. This is a stock package - built from the unpatched release sources and packaged into a RPM with ''contrib/buildrpm'' using the standard Mercurial specification, now compatible with AIX. The 1.3 and later releases require Python 2.4 or later, so if you install 1.4 or later you may need to also install my Python 2.4 package. | + | The latest Mercurial package available is for Mercurial 1.6.3.

| Older packages for releases back to 1.0 are also available, all the stock release, except for 1.2 which has a trivial patch to report the version correctly. Finally, the original 0.9.5 release is also available. This has three patches applied. One patch corrects a small error in the patch import code which stops it running under Python 2.3, another fixes an AIX issue in the binary diff C module and the last one fixes hgmerge to insist on the GNU utilities; the default AIX ones are not sufficient. The first two of these patches were accepted into the official 1.0 source, and as to the third, well, hgmerge is no more. | Older packages for releases back to 1.0 are also available, all the stock release, except for 1.2 which has a trivial patch to report the version correctly.
