I have been using github to keep my web site development updated with my designer. Until now everything worked fine until the folder exceeded 100MB. Github does not give me the opportunity to push my files any more.
I thought about turning to bitbucket+mercurial.
I am totally new to this but it looks like they workj the same way, but with not size restrictions.
So:
I have set up a repository in bitbucket.
I installed mercurial in Ubuntu.
Then i did hg init
to initialize the folder.
Then i cloned my repository to my folder with hg clone https://myrepositoryadress
Then i copied all my files into this folder and then tried to commit them
hg commit -u myname -m "My first Commit"
then finally i want to push them with: hg push https://myrepository adress
At this point it asks me password and then freezes with the message:
searching for changes
The whole folder is about 140MB. It doesnt show any action or like uploading anything it stays there forever.

Eventually it needed a lot of time in the first place to synchronize. Now it runs smoothly: hg add . , hg commit -u user -m "text" , hg push – xbass540 23 hours ago
