      I've configured my build job to poll from a hg repository and build when it detected changes.

      This failed because the authorization was not working correctly.

      To reproduce:

      For us the problem was that although the mercurial url contained username and password, the password did not get retained in the url in the .hg/hgrc config.

      i.e. it would read

      1. cat .hg/hgrc
        [paths]
        default = http://user@host/path/to/hg/

      instead of

      1. cat .hg/hgrc
        [paths]
        default = http://user:password@host/path/to/hg/

          Different symptom from JENKINS-16138, but essentially the same issue. The plugin currently has no support for authentication. Plan to do so using the Credentials API rather than having the user put passwords in the URL.
