Another (large) step along the road
Just saw this in my mailbox from mjnelson:
Along with a copy (or 6!) of the associated flag day message:
Flag day: ON Developer Tools upgraded to support Mercurial
There's more associated doco to come, of course, but from now on if you're building OpenSolaris (ok, the ON consolidation) from the source then you should really get up to speed on how your workspace management tools behave.
This is all in preparation for the close of build 96: from the open of build 97 the ON gate will be managed with Mercurial.... as a precursor to the eventual move of the gate outside Sun's network and opening up the contribution process yet more.
So we're getting there, bit by bit by bit.
