* Added setting to specify that diff command should be run once for each selected file, rather than passing all file names to diff command (p4merge doesn't like being given many files)

{Sharing changes}

Every time I push some changes, I have to type my password again

When you push to a remote repository with an "https:" prefix on its
URL, EasyMercurial's password dialog should ask whether you want to
remember your login details.

If you say yes, the details will be stored until EasyMercurial
exits---so you won't have to enter them if you push or pull again
while the present EasyMercurial session is running. Your password will
be stored, encrypted with a session key, in a file which is deleted
when EasyMercurial exits.

*If this option does not appear*

... and if you're using OS/X, then you need to install the PyCrypto
library before EasyMercurial will be able to store encrypted passwords
for you.

Try running @sudo easy_install pycrypto@ in a terminal window.

*Not using an https repository?*

If your remote repository uses ssh or some other protocol, then
EasyMercurial won't be able to help. You might consider using ssh
public key authentication and an ssh agent---talk to the admin of your
remote repository for more details.
