TortoiseHg and Mercurial installer builder for Windows
Contents:
contrib/ - Bundled libraries and utilities external to (T)HG
misc/ - Miscellaneous files used to build packages
=== Mercurial Prerequisites ===
- Python 2.6.6
http://www.python.org/
C:\Python26 must be in your PATH
You will need the x86 Python interpreter to generate x86 MSI packages
and the x64 Python interpreter to generate x64 MSI packages. You'll
need to install the Python package pre-reqs for each interpreter.
- C++ Compiler
Get the gratis "Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET
Framework 3.5 SP1" from microsoft.com.
See the win32/shellext/README.txt file in the TortoiseHg source
for details on installing this package.
If you already have Visual Studio 2008, installing the SDK will
confuse DISTUTILS when it tries to build Mercurial's C extensions.
Simply comment out the line in setup.py that sets the
DISTUTILS_USE_SDK environment variable, and distutils will use VC2008
to build Mercurial and our build scripts will use SDK's compiler to
build the THG shell extension. These are supposedly the same
compiler, so it should be ok.
Following the advice in http://bugs.python.org/issue7511#msg124556
might be needed for x64 builds ("copy VC\bin\vcvars64.bat into
VC\bin\amd64\vcvarsamd64.bat")
- gettext
We recommend the 'Setup program' from
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gettext.htm
- py2exe
Get the latest version for your Python release
http://sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe/
- Windows Installer XML
Get the latest stable 3.0 package from
http://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/60102
- Docutils
Building HTML man pages for Mercurial requires the rst2html.py
script from docutils. The easiest way to get docutils is to
install setuptools (below), then:
C:\Python26\Scripts\easy_install.exe docutils
=== Building TortoiseHg documentation ===
To build just the TortoiseHg docs, install the packages below then:
python setup.py --thg-doc
- setuptools (provides easy_install.exe)
Get the latest version for your Python release
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
We're using:
setuptools-0.6.c11.win32-py2.6
- sphinx, docutils, jinja2, pygments, etc
(requires easy_install from setuptools)
The sphinx package has dependencies for docutils, jinja, etc,
so installing sphinx pulls in all the other prerequisites.
easy_install sphinx
- MiKTeX (to build PDF docs)
http://miktex.org/2.8/setup
You can chose for it to automatically download packages when
it needs them, else the first time it builds PDF docs it will
require much user interaction.
We're using:
setup-2.8.3553
- HTML Help Workshop (to build CHM docs)
This should come with the Windows SDK, but also available here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms669985%28VS.85%29.aspx
=== Building TortoiseHg Installer Packages ===
To build TortoiseHg MSI packages, you need the Mercurial prerequisites,
TortoiseHg documentation prerequisites, and these packages:
- PyQt 4.7 or later
Riverbank Computing
- pywin32
Get the latest version for your Python release
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/
pywin32-216.win32-py2.6.exe
- comtypes (no longer optional)
comtypes-0.6.2.win32.exe from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/comtypes/files/
- Subversion Python bindings (no longer optional)
Download the svn_py26_xYY.zip file for your arch from
https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/downloads
extract the svn and libsvn folders under Python26*\lib\site-packages
== Build Steps ==
It's entirely automated. Ensure C:\Python26 is in your path, then run:
python setup.py --help
To build x64 packages, you use:
C:\python26x64\python.exe setup.py --help
== Example for preparing a working build machine from scratch ==
Below is a detailed journal of steps that worked for setting up a
TortoiseHg build machine from scratch.
1) Windows 7 x64 SP1 installed, logged in as <user>
2a) Installed python-2.6.6.amd64.msi in C:\Python26-x64, added this dir to PATH
2b) Installed python-2.6.6.msi in C:\Python26, deselected "Register Extensions"
on feature selection during install to *not* have this Python as default
3) Installed "Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5 SP1"
4) Installed gettext-0.14.4
5a) Installed py2exe-0.6.9.win64-py2.6.amd64.exe in C:\Python26-x64
5b) Installed py2exe-0.6.9.win32-py2.6.exe in C:\Python26
6a) Installed setuptools-0.6c11.win32-py2.6.exe in C:\Python26
6b) Downloaded ez_setup.py as explained on http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
and ran "C:\Python26-x64\python.exe ez_setup.py"
7a) Ran "C:\Python26\Scripts\easy_install.exe docutils"
7b) Ran "C:\Python26-x64\Scripts\easy_install.exe docutils"
8a) Ran "C:\Python26\Scripts\easy_install.exe sphinx"
8b) Ran "C:\Python26-x64\Scripts\easy_install.exe sphinx"
9) Installed "Basic MiKTeX 2.9" Installer, setting "Install missing packages
on the fly" to "Yes"
10a) Installed PyQt-Py2.6-x64-gpl-4.8.5-1.exe in C:\Python26-x64
10b) Installed PyQt-Py2.6-x86-gpl-4.8.5-1 in C:\Python26
11a) Installed pywin32-216.win-amd64-py2.6.exe in C:\Python26-x64
11b) Installed pywin32-216.win32-py2.6.exe in C:\Python26
12) Installed Wix3.msi from http://wix.codeplex.com/releases/view/44406
13) Installed htmlhelp.exe from
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=21138
14a) Installed comtypes-0.6.2.win32.exe
14b) Ran "C:\Python26-x64\Scripts\easy_install.exe comtypes"
15) Donloaded svn_py26_x64.zip and svn_py26_x86.zip from
https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg/downloads and extracted the
svn and libsvn folders under C:\Python*\lib\site-packages
16) Installed tortoisehg-2.1.2-hg-1.9.1-x64.msi, then logoff/logon
17) Created empty folder C:\Users\<user>\hgrepos, opened cmd.exe in that folder
18) Ran "hg clone https://bitbucket.org/tortoisehg/thg-build"
19) cd thg-build/winbuild
20) Ran "C:\Python26\python.exe setup.py --thg-dev" -> built a x86 msi
21) Ran "C:\Python26-x64\python.exe setup.py --thg-dev" -> built a x64 msi
