Hg Commit Monitor – Get notified of new pushs to Mercurial repositories
I didn’t find any commit monitor for Mercurial repositories. I am currently working on a project with multiple people pushing to one repository – and of course I want to know as soon as possible when one of the others did commit new source code. That way we can resolve merge conflicts soon and get a nice code review loop going.
Hg Commit Monitor uses the atom feeds of repositories to detect new commits. It was quite important for me that it does get out of my way and sight – unless I need to be notified. So it will just sit in the tray and only communicate via balloons.
If you are interested in such a tool, you can download it from here. I did publish both a compiled version and a snapshot of the mercurial repository.
Currently Hg Commit Monitor needs .NET 3.5. But if you want to run it on mono, please contact me and I will replace the reference to System.ServiceModel.Syndication with a third party Atom parser.


hello, Hertkorn!
This is Nathaniel Chen from China.
I am a beginner as a programmer, and now i use the Mercurial as the version control tool.
From the website, I know about your tool(hg commit monitor), is there any documentation about this tool? For example, the parameter settings and how to add a new repos to minitor?
Thank you and Wish your mail!
