Checkin gives error "abort: There is noMercurialrepositoryhere(.hg not found)!" on TortoiseHg/Windows version

[jens.lund at nordea.com]

Does the further information below help giving anybody any clues that
can help me solving my problem, where the second of two commits fail on
Windows with the TortoiseHg installer?

Any other ideas as to in which direction to look for a solution?
