Which Mercurial plugin should I use for IntelliJ

Which of the hg plug-ins 开发者_如何学Chas:

• the least hassles
• causes the least trouble
• is prettiest

Can't claim to have tried a wide variety, but, what's wrong with hg4idea...?

In regards to the "don't use one" response - this is hardly adequate. What if I use my IDE to do a refactoring that renames a file? Without IDE/source control integration, the file rename is made without regards to source control, and then Mercurial (or whatever else) thinks a file went missing and a new one appeared. Then you have to go back to wrangle with the source control to sort things out.

JetBrains seems to have chosen hg4idea-luciad for its upcoming Python editor (PyCharm) and it is now more active than hg4idea

It looks like a leader is on the way :-)

To answer your question: The best IDE PlugIn is don't use on.

I think IDE integration is not necessary when working with a DVCS. When working in a centralized System, it is reasonable for the purpose of automatic check out on edit. However, I like keeping things separate. I don't want my IDE cluttered up. I don't see any benefits in using a plug-in compared to a standalone solution (that I keep running on a second monitor etc. ).

I am fine with TortoiseHG and the command line for more complicated tasks.
