Hi.

I'm new to Mercurial.

I want to publish my Mercurial repositories on a "public" HTTP server.

The problem is that:
1) The builtin web server is not ideal.
2) nginx does not support CGI
3) nginx does not execute a fastcgi process for you
    (like Apache or lighttpd).


So I need to write a script that will setup the server (using flup or 
Aspen), with support to daemonization, setuid/gid and so on.

There is something already available?
Dos Mercurial support the deployment method used by Apache mod_wsgi (so 
I can write the script once for a given web server).


Thanks  Manlio Perillo
