the 'Source' box (in this case I have specified a particular folder on
the server; 'loser', I suggest you do the same for now). You may also
choose where you want the repository to be created by clicking
'Browse' next to the 'Destination' box. As far as I recall, you don't
need to edit anything in the box where it says 'Hg command'. Click 'Clone'!< / p >

< p > That will have cloned the /loser/ repository to your laptop.

If you want to update the handbook or other parts of the website you will also need to clone the /expoweb/ repository.
You can scan what's in the repositories (read only) using your web browser:
< ul >
< li > < a href = "http://expo.survex.com/repositories/home/expo/loser/graph/" > loser< / a > - the survex survey data< / li >
< li > < a href = "http://expo.survex.com/repositories/home/expo/expoweb/graph" > expoweb< / a > - the website itself, including generation scripts< / li >
