-====== TortoiseHg ======
-No package in Mint20/Ubuntu20.04 (yet), needs to be build manually:
-<code>
-# make a folder to hold the tortoise source
-mkdir ~/temp 2>/dev/null
-cd ~/temp
-# alias the python3 binary as python
-sudo apt install python-is-python3
-# now this should work, and return a 3.8.x version
-python --version
-# pip3 is needed to fulfill all the build dependencies
-sudo apt install -y python3-pip build-essential
-# install mercurial command line
-sudo apt install -y mercurial
-# pull tortoisehg source (stable branch)
-hg clone https://foss.heptapod.net/mercurial/tortoisehg/thg -r stable
-cd thg
-pip3 install pyqt5
-pip3 install qscintilla
-sudo apt install -y pyqt5.qsci-dev
-sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5.qsci
-pip3 install mercurial
-# install one more necessary package
-sudo apt install -y python3-iniparse
-# build it
-make local
-# move it to ~/tortoisehg  (this is optional)
-cd ~/temp
-rm -rf ~/tortoisehg 2>/dev/null
-mkdir ~/tortoisehg
-mv thg/* ~/tortoisehg
-</code>
-Now you can create a dock/desktop entry:
-<code>
-vi ~/.local/share/applications/tortoisehg.desktop
-</code>
-and paste in these lines (replace "developer" with your username) :
-<code>
-[Desktop Entry]
-Name=TortoiseHG
-Exec=/home/developer/tortoisehg/thg
-Comment=Launch TortoiseHG
-Terminal=false
-Type=Application
-Icon=/home/developer/tortoisehg/icons/thg_logo.ico
-</code>
-Now you can hit the "Show Applications" button (the Start menu), search for Tortoise, and add it to favorites.
