16 So what can you do with Update Manager? If you have a project that you want to serve to users and user Mercurial as a way to deliver updates, Update Manager allows you to deliver those updates without the fear of creating a problem with user sentiment. Users will be able to (when completed) access their Control tab and update to any revision or any branch that has been served via a repoistory. Users also have the option to protect files from being overwritten during updates, or not update at all!
