* FAQ
Q: Is Hg Status a fully functional Mercurial client?
A: No, Hg Status is not a fully functional Mercurial client, it is designed to show the working copy status only. You still need other Mercurial clients to manage your Mercurial repositories.
Q: There is no icon overlay for the files?
A: Please make sure that youve enabled "Hg Status Free Extension" in "System Preferences » Extensions", and also make sure that youve added the working copy to Hg Status. If the problem persists, please disable "Hg Status Free Extension" in "System Preferences » Extensions" and then enable it again. The last resort is to relaunch Finder or restart your computer.
Q: Does Hg Status work well with other Mercurial clients?
A: Yes. In theory, Hg Status works with any kinds of Mercurial (Hg) clients, from the command line to the GUI apps.
Q: Does Hg Status work for file managers other than Finder?
A: Hg Status is primarily a Finder extension, so it is likely that it will not work for other file managers.
* Hg Status Free supports only one working copy, get Hg Status full version to support unlimited working copies.
