Did you init a user for mercurial? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man5/hgrc.5.html
Also you need to create a repo for your app : hg init You have to ignore some folder like sessions, cache, etc. Then you should be able to use web2py to commit, I don't know if it still the case, but in pass you were not able to use branch and merge in web2py... I am not sure if it still the case. Here a thread that could help you, there is a lot of ressources here and there and Chris explanation are pretty good. Depend of your needs, you don't have to set Eclipse... https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/web2py/JRYd3Ltcyls/Ucau_NVVZuwJ Hope it helps.
