Hello Eric, pbreit is better palced then me for complete answer, but I don't thinke there is any repo on the prod server... You should just push without Hg file, so your prod app is not under VC anymore... I completly erase after backup my app and copy new app release in place without .hg app subdirectory...
I didn't try yet Fabric, so I can't help with how you could manage it with Fabric. Hope I get time to try it soon...
