<h1>Windows: TortoiseHg and PuTTy</h1>
<p>Struggling to get TortoiseHg to work on Windows (v7 or v10)? Here’s a quick guide which I hope explains how to sort it all
<p>Struggling to get TortoiseHg to work on Windows (v10)? Here’s a quick guide which I hope explains how to sort it all
out.</p>
<p>First you need to set up <a href="../computing/keyexchange.html">keys</a> so that you can use ssh.
Until you can do that there is no point in doing anything else. This is <i>particularly difficult</i>
on Windows which requires <a href="https://rperki.blogspot.com/2015/06/install-puttypageant-on-win-10.html">extra software to be installed and configured</a>.
Allow an afternoon at least to get this bit to work as it is poorly documented.
To get the keys set up on the server you will have to wait for an already-authenticated nerd to do it for you so this is not a quick job.
<p>First download and install both <a href="http://tortoisehg.bitbucket.io/">TortoiseHg</a>
and <a href="http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html">PuTTy</a>. Then run PuTTy;</p>
