 But `IRepositoryProvider` components can make other repositories available. In particular, the default `RepositoryManager` itself provides a list of repositories listed in a new `[repositories]` section in TracIni. See r6447 for more details.
 
+= Installation (with mercurial) =
+
+A current installation procedure which works is the following:
+
+1. Check out the mercurial plugin:
+{{{
+svn co http://svn.edgewall.com/repos/trac/sandbox/mercurial-plugin-0.12
+}}}
+2. build the mercurial plugin.  From within the checked-out directory, build the egg file (it will end up in the dist subdirectory):
+{{{
+python setup.py bdist_egg
+}}}
+3. Check out the multirepos branch:
+{{{
+svn co http://svn.edgewall.com/repos/trac/sandbox/multirepos
+}}}
+4. Install the multirepos version of trac (from within the multirepos directory, as root):
+{{{
+python setup.py install
+}}}
+5. Create your trac environment directory
+
+6. Copy the mercurial plugin egg file to the <trac-env>/plugins directory
+
+7. make sure the following is somewhere in <trac-env>/conf/trac.ini, adding all the desired repositories to the [repositories] section:
+{{{
+[components]
+tracext.hg.* = enabled
+
+[repositories]
+my_repository_a.dir = <path_to_a_repository>
+my_repository_b.dir = <path_to_another_repository>
+
+[trac]
+repository_dir = <path_to_default_repository>
+repository_type = hg
+}}}
+8. Cross your fingers, and hope it works :)
