Description
The description field of a Mercurial repository could be read from the repository's .hg/hgrc file. It's usually specified in the [web] section. The information could be used as the description if the field is left blank, or overridden otherwise. This would save admins from having to write the description in two places.

If possible, please allow overriding the description in hgrc with no description. I do have descriptions in hgrc for my repositories, for display in hgweb, but I prefer not displaying them in Trac, because they take too much vertical space.

th:HgDirManagerPlugin provides all repositories found in a directory, and it also provides hgrc descriptions for those repositories.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Ah yes, good idea. Now if you could transform this good idea into a good patch ;-)
I think I'll start using the main milestone instead of the somewhat redundant plugin - mercurial one, also useful as a way to show on which branch of the plugin the change will happen.
