Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu
better.

I found a bug report in Debian with the same error message, so I have
attached a bug watch, believing it to be the same issue. TortoiseHg 3.1
has since been packaged in Debian which presumably solved the issue.

I have to admit I haven't been able to trigger this error message myself
on Ubuntu Utopic. (I tried to clone a random mercurial repository,
tortoisehg's actually, and then open tgh in the directory which worked
without any errors). Though, it sounds plausible that a newer version of
tortoiseHg is required when mercurial has been upgraded. Do you have an
example of a repository which triggers the error message, or more
details on how to trigger it?

Usually it is possible to request syncing of newer packages from Debian,
but since the release of Ubuntu Utopic draws closer, a Feature Freeze
Exception must be requested, se
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess for details. A relevant
part of that request would probably be if we can show that a repository
raising this error with thg 3.0 will start working with thg 3.1, so that
it can be verified the newer package fixes this issue. With such a test
case, I believe it likely that a freeze exception would be accepted.
