title: How do you get hgsubversion working?
body: <p>The online documentation for hgsubversion sucks, IMO (I hate to say that). I've been following the instructions in the <a href="http://mercurial.aragost.com/kick-start/hgsubversion.html#id4" rel="noreferrer">Quick Start</a>.</p>
  
  <p>What have I done? </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>I installed Mercurial:</p>
  
  <p>D:\repos\experimental>hg --version
  Mercurial Distributed SCM (version 1.6)</p></li>
  <li><p>I installed TortoiseHg to match the Mercurial version.</p></li>
  <li><p>I downloaded the hgsubversion repository:</p>
  
  <p>D:\devapps> hg clone <a href="http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hgsubversion" rel="noreferrer">http://bitbucket.org/durin42/hgsubversion</a></p></li>
  <li><p>I modified my .hgrc as follows:</p>
  
  <p>[extensions]
  hgsubversion=D:\devapps\hgsubversion\hgsubversion</p>
  
  <p>D:\repos\experimental>hg help hgsubversion
  hgsubversion extension - integration with Subversion repositories</p>
  
  <p>hgsubversion is an extension for Mercurial that allows it to act as a Subversion client, offering fast, incremental and bidirectional synchronisation.</p></li>
  <li><p>I installed <a href="http://pysvn.tigris.org/files/documents/1233/45660/py25-pysvn-svn156-1.7.0-1177.exe" rel="noreferrer">PySVN for Python 2.5</a>.</p></li>
  <li><p>I tried to clone an SVN repository:</p>
  
  <p>...> hg clone <a href="http://path/to/repository/" rel="noreferrer">http://path/to/repository/</a> repository-hg</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>And I got the following result:</p>
  
  <pre><code>...
  abort: Subversion 1.5.0 or later required, but no bindings were found!
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>WTF? There's nothing in the instructions I'm following that tells you how to install this. Any help is greatly appreciated!! (I just want a way to work without SVN as much as possible - PLEASE HELP!).</p>
