13 This is the first standalone release of Mercurial for Windows. I 13 * New INI files have been added to control Mercurial's behaviour:
14 believe it to be mostly functional, with one exception: there is no 14
15 support yet for DOS <-> Unix line ending conversion. 15 System-wide - C:\Mercurial\Mercurial.ini
16 Per-user - C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Mercurial.ini
17
18 A default version of the system-wide INI file is installed with
19 Mercurial. No per-user INI file is installed, but it will be
20 honoured if you create one.
21
22 * Windows line endings are now handled automatically and correctly by
23 the update and commit commands. See the INI file for how to
24 customise this behaviour.
25
26 * NOTE: Much of the rest of the Mercurial code does not handle Windows
27 line endings properly. Accordingly, the output of the diff command,
28 for example, will appear huge until I fix this.
29
30 * Packaged text files now have correct Windows line endings.
