Mercurial commit with subrepositories in subfolders

I have file/directory structure:

main/.hg
main/subrepo/.hg
main/subrepo1/.hg

I have .hgignore file with such content

.hg

Finally, I want to make a commit in 'main' repository that will include all files in it, including all files from main/subrepo and main/subrepo1 and excluding folders main/subrepo/.hg and main/subrepo1/.hg (so all files from main folder, excluding .hg folders in it will be commited). But Mercurial skips main/subrepo/* and main/subrepo1/*. It does not include this subfolders/subrepos to commit fully. How can I fix this?

I'm going to guess that you have simply created some nested repositories, but not properly linked them as subrepositories.

Make sure that the root of the main repository has a file called .hgsub. You create the file, add the following and then add + commit the file to the main repository:

subrepo = https://path-to-subrepo/
subrepo1 = https://path-to-subrepo1

If the subrepos do not point to some remote server, you would use the local path of course.
