Hi,

Before installing this new release, I have one question : in the
ReleaseHistory there is :

Added user config 'tortoisehg.overlayicons' [True|False|localdisks],
to enable/disable overlay icons in selected repos. The 'localdisks'
global option disables overlay icons for repos reside on network
drives.

I don't understand the "in selected repos" part. Is there a way to
configure TortoiseHg so that only the directory c:\src\hg will be
scanned (like with TortoiseSvn) ?

I was very interested in TortoiseHg but was forced to uninstall it
because my explorer was slowwwwwww (I have a big disk with many
mercurial and subversion big project, so a lot of small files). I had
the same problem with tortoiseSvn and I solved it by making it scan
only the directory c:\src\svn).

thanks in adavance, in any case I'll test it properly this weekend.
