I am using Windows xp 32 bit and i am using TortoiseHg and I want to clone a file from Codeplex but when I try to clone the sourcecode, I got an error says

'https://wbfsmanager.svn.codeplex.com/svn?cmd=capabilities/?cmd=capabilities/?cmd=between&pairs=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000-0000000000000000000000000000000000000000/' does not appear to be an hg repository:

So how can I convert it to a Hg format?

CodePudding user response：

You should normally use TortoiseSVN to checkout a Subversion repository from Codeplex via their SvnBridge. If it's your own project, then you can also create it as a Mercurial repository instead of a Subversion repository.

However, if you really want to use Mercurial to clone from Subversion, then you need more than just standard Mercurial: you need to use hgsubversion. Please see my hgsubversion guide for some help.
