This item will be closed. You can now use Mercurial by using “Working folder” which saves changes to disk and allows you to use external tools to commit and retrieve your changes. This requires use of your own Mercurial client tool, but feedback indicates that this is preferred as it grants more control over commits and pushes, and allows atomic commits. Please get in touch if you have any questions.

    I know this isn't ideal but in our current Git beta there is a feature called "Working folder" which allows you to link Source Control for Oracle to an artbitrary directory on disk which itself can be under source control via Mercurial.

    It is perhaps worth trying out.

    (The work that I've done adding Git support should make Mercurial support easier in the future)

    I vote with Brian for Mercurial support for Oracle version control!

    I have used Redgate tools for quite awhile. Recently I have moved to a job where there is no source control of our Database objects in the oracle database.

    The organization recently moved to Mercurial, and is not likely to add a new repo software, so if Hg was to be supported I am sure that we would purchase this product immediately.
