Purdue HG Setup

I was trying to set up a personal repo on Purdue’s machines using hg and of course I was confronted with the dreaded lines:

remote: bash: hg: command not found
abort: no suitable response from remote hg!

Well, this is really irritating. The solution to this problem is that you must specify hg’s path in your .bashrc file on lore.

So on lore, add the following to your $PATH variable:

/opt/csw/bin

And you should be fine.

    Was this on lore? Shouldn’t need to do this on the Linux machines:

    [dytang@pod1-1:~]$ which hg
    hg is /usr/bin/hg

    Yes, just on lore. The linux machines don’t seem to have this problem.
