Can I allow_push on individual repositories using hgweb.config [Mercurial]

Question

In hgweb.config, the allow_push parameter applies to all defined repos defined in the [paths] section. Is there a way to allow push on one repo but not in another, or would I need to actually create completely separate configurations (and corresponding web apps) per repo then? (In case it matters, it's on Windows with hgweb hosted in IIS).

Answer 1

You can define individual push rules per repo in repo\.hg\hgrc file like so:

[web]
allow_push = *

to allow push to everyone or

[web]
allow_push = John

to allow push to John only

If you can't find the hgrc file in repo\.hg\ directory, just create it.
