[Stackless] Stackless mercurial repository live

[Aleksandar Radulovic]

AFAIK, it's exactly how you described - Richard cloned the python repo
and applied the stackless patches on top of it.

For Hg tips&tricks, I highly recommend reading http://hginit.com -
it's just awesome read and helped me understand few Hg quirks :)

> So Richard, whatever came out of this?
> Also, can you give me a brief overview on how the repository is laid out?  From my quick overview, it appears to be a clone of the python repository, with stackless 2.7 and 3.2 branches created by branching off the original ones (non stackless), applyling the stackless delta and checking in as new branches.
> So, do things work now?
> I just upgraded to the latest tortoiseHg client, synced the repo and so on.  Any tips and tricks?  I'm still not very familiar with the hg world.
