How to get the remote server hg path?

Question

I have created a remote repo to push my local changes over ssl. I did hg showconfig --debug to find my remote hg path but it's output is messy. Can someone point me how to exactly find it?

hg paths gives the relationship between each path name and its url.

> hg paths
default = ssh://[email protected]/repo
local = /local/path/to/repo

hg paths <name> gives the url for the name.

> hg paths default
ssh://[email protected]/repo

> hg paths local
/local/path/to/repo

BTW, to get just the path names:

> hg paths -q
default
local

and hg paths -q <name> will always result in no output.

Some added info: hg paths (with no parameter) shows all URLs for any symbolic paths (shortcuts) you have defined in ~/.hgrc combined with the paths identified in the /.../<repo>/.hg/hgrc file if you are in a specific local repository. I am using Mercurial 3.3. Not sure about older versions. – Hickson
