Source archives and binary packages for various systems. See WhatsNew for information on upgrading.

1. Binary packages

1.1. Windows

/!\ Like TortoiseSVN, we recommend turning off the indexing service on the working copies and repositories, and excluding them from virus scans.

The following installers can be used from Windows XP onwards:

Most of the above installers are from thg-winbuild, which has nightly builds of Mercurial and TortoiseHg.

1.2. Mac OS X

1.3. Linux (.deb)

Mercurial (from 1.0 onwards) is packaged for Debian-related distributions as two packages, mercurial and mercurial-common - you only need to care about this if you are downloading .deb files for manual installation - otherwise, APT dependency handling will take care of this for you when you install mercurial.

1.4. Linux (.rpm)

Since Mercurial version 3.4, the Mercurial project provides packages for the following systems:

You can download, install and upgrade the packages manually.

You can also add it as a "yum" package repository and get automatic updates: Add the following file at /etc/yum.repos.d/mercurial.selenic.com.repo and run yum install mercurial.

[mercurial.selenic.com]
name=mercurial.selenic.com
baseurl=http://mercurial.selenic.com/release/centos$releasever
enabled=1
# Temporary until we get a serious signing scheme in place,
# check http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/Download again
gpgcheck=0

/!\ Mercurial is stable and won't break on automatic updates. Mercurial do however not promise API stability so an update might break extensions or tools using Mercurial internals.

Similar Fedora packages can be built from a Mercurial source repository with commands like make docker-fedora21. "Unsupported" platforms can use contrib/buildrpm directly.

You can also install the package from your distribution

1.5. Linux (others)

1.6. Solaris

1.7. AIX

1.8. BSD

1.9. Plan 9 from Bell Labs

% contrib/install stallion/mercurial

2. Source packages

After getting the source, continue to UnixInstall or WindowsInstall for help with installing.

3. Using easy_install

/!\ This method is not recommended and may conflict with other installs of Mercurial.

Mercurial can also be installed from pypi with easy_install. You will need Python and the C compiler used to build it and easy_install. easy_install might be available in a python-dev or python-setuptools-devel package for your platform or you can grab it from http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall.

/!\ Unable to find vcvarsall.bat fix error with mingw and install mercurial 1.7.3 with python 2.7

Create a file in C:\Python26\Lib\distutils and call it distutils.cfg
[build]
compiler=mingw32

With the right prerequisites you can install the latest version of Mercurial using:

easy_install -U mercurial
