Sorry if I'm being obtuse, but what do you mean when you say that
mercurial ignores the hg-python folder. Then why is it there on the
hackable mercurial package? Is it just in case the user does not have
python installed?

So you mean that if I place the path to my python 2.7 folder (e.g.
c:\python27) in my path then the hg-python folder is not needed and
the hackable mercurial will ignore it and use my system python
instead?

If so, what happens if I also have mercurial installed in
c:\python27\Lib\site-packages?

Sorry if these questions are obvious...
