SnailHg: Mercurial for Finder

SnailHg is a TortoiseSVN-like Hg (Mercurial) client, implemented as a Finder extension.

* Please check out our SnailSVN or SnailGit if you are looking for a SVN / Git client.

SnailHg allows you to access the most frequently used Hg features, right from the Finder context menu.

In a few steps, you can start using SnailHg easily:
1. Enable "SnailHg Extension" in "System Preferences » Extensions".
2. Clone a Hg working copy with SnailHg (File » Hg Clone...) or add an existing Hg working copy to SnailHg.
3. Navigate to your working copy in Finder and right click to access SnailHg functionalities.
