-* Need to get post commit hook working (or an example of how to use it.)

-* rcs_notify is not implemented (not needed in this branch --[[Joey]])
* Is the code sufficiently robust? It just warns when mercurial fails.
* When rcs_commit is called with a $user that is an openid, it will be
passed through to mercurial -u. Will mercurial choke on this?

+The problem with --post-commit is that if you delete some pages in $SRC, ikiwiki --setup setupfile --post-commit will not delete them in $DEST.
+
+I add the following to .hg/hgrc:
+
+ [hooks]
+ changegroup = hg update >&2 && ikiwiki --setup path.to.setup.file --refresh
+ post-commit = ikiwiki --setup path.to.setup.file --refresh
+
+I tried the follwing commands in $SRC:
+
+ touch deadlocktest.mdwn
+ hg add
+ hg ci
+
+No deadlock happens. (Also I push to the $SRC from another machine, again, no deadlock.)
+
+Of course these tests are too simple. The problem is I have no idea when the deadlock will happen. If someone is kind enough to point out, I will run more test.

I have a few notes on mercurial usage after trying it out for a while:
