Well, this is a bit contradictory.  So while mercurial does not provide
any configuration interface and lets the task to a text editor (which,
for the record, I find completely reasonable); it can, however,
partially reimplement and/or replace traditional shell scripts.

I'm not a crew member nor a frequent contributor, therefore there's very
little I can do.  But I still can't find the ratinale behind this, other
than how cool it is to run "hg mkrepo".

And, again, with all my respects.

Regards.
