Steve, you can pull from many different repositories. I'm not sure which
version of TortoiseHg you're using, but what you're seeing is that you
don't have a "default" path in the hgrc for your server repository.

In  TortoiseHg 1.x you just need to View the Sync toolbar and then you can
type in the edit(dropdown) the repo to pull from. You can add entries to
the dropdown by going to settings and under Synchronize adding "Remote
Repository Paths".

TortoiseHg 2.x has something similar (I think a sync tab), but I don't have
that running in front of me to describe.

Hope this helps,
Mike
