Chris@499 4 <h2>I want to let my colleagues pull changes directly from my local repository</h2>
Chris@498 5
Chris@498 6 <p>You can do this on a temporary basis using EasyMercurial, for
Chris@498 7 occasional ad-hoc transfers:</p>
Chris@498 8
Chris@498 9 <p><b>1. In EasyMercurial on your computer, go to File -> Share Repository and make a note of the URL shown in the window that is opened</b></p>
Chris@498 10
Chris@498 11 <p><b>2. In EasyMercurial on your colleague's computer, either <a href="a-12.html">open a new empty folder</a>, or <a href="a-13.html">reopen a repository</a> that has been pulled from your repository in the past</b></p>
Chris@498 12
Chris@498 13 <p><b>3. Go to Remote -> Set Remote Location on your colleague's computer and enter the URL you made a note of in the first step</b></p>
Chris@498 14
Chris@498 15 <p><b>4. Click Pull in the main toolbar on your colleague's EasyMercurial program.</b></p>
Chris@498 16
Chris@498 17 <p>There are various ways to set this relationship on a less temporary
Chris@498 18 footing if you have shared access to your local folder, through
Chris@498 19 network filesystems or via remote login to the computer you are using.
Chris@498 20 Configuring this is outside the scope of this help document.</p>
