+<h2><a name="hg">Use of Mercurial</a></h2>
+<blockquote>
+The OpenJDK sources are maintained with the revision control system
+<a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/Mercurial">Mercurial</a>.
+If you are new to Mercurial, please see the
+<a href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/BeginnersGuides">Beginner Guides</a>
+or refer to the <a href=""http://hgbook.red-bean.com/">Mercurial Book</a>.
+The first few chapters of the book provide an excellent overview of
+Mercurial, what it is and how it works.
+<br>
+For using Mercurial with the OpenJDK refer to the
+<a href=""http://openjdk.java.net/guide/repositories.html#installConfig">
+Developer Guide: Installing and Configuring Mercurial</a>
+section for more information.
+The Forest Extension is not part of the Mercurial install,
+and is optional,
+but can be obtained with the following commands:
+<blockquote>
+<tt>
+hg clone https://bitbucket.org/pmezard/hgforest-crew/overview/ <i>YourHgForest</i>
+</tt>
+</blockquote>
+Once you have the file <tt>forest.py</tt>, you need to add these
+lines to your <tt>${HOME}/.hgrc</tt> file:
+<blockquote>
+<tt>
+[extensions]
+<br>forest = <i>YourHgForest</i>/forest.py
+</tt>
+</blockquote>
+<!-- ------------------------------------------------------ -->
+<h3><a name="get_source">Getting the Source</a></h3>
+<blockquote>
+To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
+using the Forest Extension:
+<blockquote>
+<tt>
+hg fclone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
+</tt>
+</blockquote>
+To get the entire set of OpenJDK Mercurial repositories
+without using the Forest Extension:
+<blockquote>
+<tt>
+hg clone http://openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7 <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
+<br>cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
+<br>sh ./get_source.sh
+</tt>
+</blockquote>
+Once you have all the repositories, the
+script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt>
+can be used to repeat the same <tt>hg</tt>
+command on every repository in the forest, e.g.
+<blockquote>
+<tt>
+cd <i>YourOpenJDK</i>
+<br>sh ./make/scripts/hgforest.sh pull -u
+</tt>
+</blockquote>
+You may find this script <tt>make/scripts/hgforest.sh</tt> faster
+than the <tt>hg</tt> forest commands provided by the
+Forest Extension.

 Refer to the bash/sh/ksh setup file

 A build could be as simple as:

 Of course ksh or sh would work too.

 <p>
 <b>BEGIN WARNING</b>: At this time (Spring/Summer 2010) JDK 7 is starting a transition to
 use the newest VS2010 Microsoft compilers. These build instructions are updated
 to show where we are going. We have a QA process to go through before
 official builds actually use VS2010. So for now, official builds are
 still using VS2003. No other compilers are known to build the entire JDK,
 including non-open portions.
 So for now you should be able to build with either VS2003 or VS2010.
 We do not guarantee that VS2008 will work, although there is sufficient
 makefile support to make at least basic JDK builds plausible.
 Visual Studio 2010 Express compilers are now able to build all the
 open source repositories, but this is 32 bit only. To build 64 bit
 Windows binaries use the the 7.1 Windows SDK.<b>END WARNING.</b>
 <p>
 The 32-bit OpenJDK Windows build
 requires
 Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2010 (VS2010) Professional
 Edition or Express compiler.
 The compiler and other tools are expected to reside
 in the location defined by the variable
 <tt>VS100COMNTOOLS</tt> which
 is set by the Microsoft Visual Studio installer.
 <p>
 Once the compiler is installed,
 it is recommended that you run <tt>VCVARS32.BAT</tt>
 to set the compiler environment variables
 <tt>INCLUDE</tt>,
 <tt>LIB</tt>, and
 <tt>PATH</tt>
 prior to building the
 OpenJDK.
 The above environment variables <b>MUST</b> be set.
 This compiler also contains the Windows SDK v 7.0a,
 which is an update to the Windows 7 SDK.

 Some of the more common problems with builds are briefly described
 below, with suggestions for remedies.
 <ul>
 <li>
 <b>Slow Builds:</b>
 <blockquote>
 If your build machine seems to be overloaded from too many
 simultaneous C++ compiles, try setting the <tt>HOTSPOT_BUILD_JOBS</tt>
 variable to <tt>1</tt> (if you're using a multiple CPU
 machine, setting it to more than the the number of CPUs is probably
 not a good idea).
 <p>
 Creating the javadocs can be very slow, if you are running
 javadoc, consider skipping that step.
 <p>
 Faster hardware and more RAM always helps too.
 The VM build tends to be CPU intensive (many C++ compiles),
 and the rest of the JDK will often be disk intensive.
 <p>
 Faster compiles are possible using a tool called
 <a href="http://ccache.samba.org/" target="_blank">ccache</a>.
 </blockquote>
 </li>
 <li>
 <b>File time issues:</b>
 <blockquote>
 If you see warnings that refer to file time stamps, e.g.
 <blockquote>
 <i>Warning message:</i><tt> File `xxx' has modification time in
 the future.</tt>
 <br>
 <i>Warning message:</i> <tt> Clock skew detected. Your build may
 be incomplete.</tt>
 </blockquote>
 These warnings can occur when the clock on the build machine is out of
 sync with the timestamps on the source files. Other errors, apparently
 unrelated but in fact caused by the clock skew, can occur along with
 the clock skew warnings. These secondary errors may tend to obscure the
 For example, an out-of-sync clock has been known to cause an old
 version of javac to be used to compile some files, resulting in errors
