Documentation is Windows-centric
Created originally on Bitbucket by matteosistisette (matteo sisti sette)
I was searching the docs to find where the list of repositories in the registry is stored on Ubuntu, but most of the docs seem to be written as if TortoiseHg was exclusively for Windows.
For example at https://tortoisehg.readthedocs.io/en/latest/settings.html
A site-wide configuration file in
C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\Mercurial.ini
This file is read first and thus has the lowest priority.A per-user configuration file in
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Mercurial.ini
…..
All those paths are windows-specific and there’s no mention of their counterparts on Linux or Mac OS.
