Including mercurial extensions from eggs

Is there some way to import an extension from an .egg file? For example hggit installs itself as hg_git-0.2.4-py2.5.egg, which cannot be listed under [extensions] directly, or it's interpreted as a standard .py file.

Is there some way to include that file as an extension?

Alternativ开发者_运维技巧ely, is there some way to install hg-git manually in a way that doesn't create .egg file, but an unpacked directory?

if the egg is installed on your Python module path (aka: you easy_installed it), just do:

name_of_extension=

in the extensions part of your .hgrc
