Mercurial is ammenable to rsync provided you devote a read-only

kernel.org/mercurial/linus to local/linus and then you merge from

similar to git's (and Monotone's), so you can sign a single hash of
the tree as well.


Ok fine. It's also interesting how you already enabled partial transfers
through http.

Please apply this patch so it doesn't fail on my setup ;)

Could you explain why this is necessary or desirable? I looked at what env does, and I am missing the point of duplicating bash normal behaviour regarding definition of per-process environment entries.
