Hello all, in the same spirit of Ira's galaxy_repo_bundler [1] I have uploaded my mercurial pre-commit hook: https://github.com/bgruening/galaxy-toolshed-hooks It integrates in mercurial and (in an ideal world ;)) should not interfere with your normal workflow. The two hooks will: - creates a backup of your tool_dependencies.xml and/or repository_dependencies.xml - updates the changeset_revision and toolshed attributes - commit the changed files - restores the backup In combination with a small script iterating over a set of dependent repositories (in the right order) I was able to update the entire ChemicalToolBoX (>20 repositories) in one step. Maybe it can be of any help for someone. Cheers, Björn [1] https://bitbucket.org/iracooke/galaxy_repo_bundler/
