Since we are talking about making the wiki better, I want to point
something out by way of an exercise.
Let's say that you didn't know anything about the hg archive command.
Go to google and try to find a way to make a zip file in mercurial.
It isn't anywhere near the top.
Now go to the wiki and try to find something using the search box.
Not a lot comes up if you search for zip or gz.
Now try to actually find the hg archive command using the wiki. Not
exactly a lot of information out there, which would explain why it
doesn't readily show up in google.
A colleague pointed this out and told me about how long he looked
before he actually found the archive command.
