Hi Detlef,

I'm getting the following error trying to validate this repository:

~$ hg id http://hg.dillo.org/dillo
abort: cannot look up remote revision; remote repository does not support the 'lookup' capability!

Is there something unusual about your hg server, or are you running an old version?

I got the same result.

My Post here was a suggestion for Ohloh to
try to detect a valid Mercurial repository [also] with a different method.

It's better to change the Mercurial validation in one location (Ohloh) instead of require 50 or more Admins to change there configuration.

In the meantime, I asked dillo.org for Help.

I'm happy to accept a new method -- if there's a better way, please share. I'll look around for an alternative.

When hg id failed, use wget and search the content.

at least one must be present:

more than 3 of each:

  • class="logEntry
  • class=tag
  • class=revision

more than 7 of each:

  • class=author
  • class=revision

Additional check: use wget to get the parent page and search the content.

The dillo repository is served by hg version 0.9.1. That's the version from debian etch. (The id command works differently in the newer versions.)

The dillo repository was upgraded to a newer hg version and ohloh accept the enlistment now.
