Hi Uwe,
Pipx lets you install and run python packages in isolated environments.
This is the most robust installation method for Mercurial + hg-evolve +
hg-git that I am aware of.
# version with comments at the bottom of this mail
sudo apt install pipx
pipx install mercurial
pipx inject mercurial hg-evolve hg-git # Omit hg-git if you don't use
it
Later, when a new release comes out, you can run
pipx upgrade mercurial
Cheers,
Sietse
---- Commented version: ----
# Acquire pipx
sudo apt install pipx
# Create a virtual environment, install Mercurial in it
# To force a particular version, write e.g. mercurial==6.4
# To install from source, write -e your/path/to/mercurial
pipx install mercurial
# Add hg-git and hg-evolve to the Mercurial installation
pipx inject mercurial hg-git hg-evolve
