Description Ted Pavlic 2011-02-16 12:11:02 UTC 
Mercurial (hg) a more popular DVCS than bzr and less popular than git, and so because rsync -C includes .git and .bzr in its list, it should also include .hg.

(if it already includes .hg, the man page needs to be updated to reflect that)

I checked in a fix into the git repo.
