Note: As of version 0.3, TortoiseHg carries an "Alpha" development status on [http://sourceforge.net/projects/tortoisehg/ SourceForge], which refers specifically to the GUI and the explorer integration (explorer.exe). The command line interface (hg.exe) is, however, based on Steve Borho's fully functional "batteries included" installer (note that the Batteries included installer has been deprecated and is no longer maintained as a separate package).

Current version 0.3 has some issues with the icon overlay handler, which the project owner, TK Soh, is currently working on (issues [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1894728&group_id=199155&atid=968354 1894728] and [https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1892791&group_id=199155&atid=968354 1892791]). The overlay handler is also expected to receive some speed improvements and a memory leak has been identified. Since the overlay handler is an integral part that currently cannot be disabled, users having issues with the overlay handler might best wait for a future release of TortoiseHg.

TortoiseHg is an all-inclusive Mercurial binary installer package for Windows, which provides a windows explorer extension (shell extension), so that Mercurial commands can be executed from the context menu of the explorer.

Command line "hg" is included as well. No other packages are needed (for example, Python is already included as a dll).

Includes several dialogs, for example for committing and history viewing/diffing. Also includes a MergeProgram and software for ssh server access.
