Create a new mercurial repo using hg init

When you have your mercurial docker container up and running, these are the steps to create a new repo.

On your server, login to mercurial docker container:

 docker exec -it $SSHCONTAINER bash su - hg

Then create your new repo:

 mkdir repo mkdir $REPONAME cd $REPONAME hg init hg verify

Add new files and commit:

 touch README.md hg addremove HGUSER=your_username_here hg commit -m "First flight" hg update

Then Ctrl+D two times to exit hg user shell and docker exec shell.

Now the repo is available and can be cloned:

 hg clone ssh://mycodehosting.example.org/repo/$REPONAME
