TortoiseHG hg clone doesn't work error 255

Question

According to the documentation from Atlassian I have installed the version 2.2.1 of tortoiseHg but i am getting the next error when i try clone my repository.

% hg clone --verbose -- hg clone https://mymercurialrepository .
repository hg clone https://mymercurialrepository not found
[command returned code 255 Sun Jul 22 17:42:51 2012]

What is wrong? btw:before to have installed the version 2.2.1 i had other version using kiln. do i need to install something else? edit some file?

I am getting same issue as I have sated [here](http://stackoverflow.com/q/15728490/892788). What did you do to resolve this problem? — diyoda_, Mar 31 '13 at 10:32
if you see in the post above.. you will see that "hg clone" is duplicate.. may be you did the same.. — Rolando, Apr 01 '13 at 16:03

To make the answer clearer, I got this from here.

You're just pasting the wrong thing and HgLab is a bit confused here. To clone using TortoiseHg, you only need the URL part, i.e. everything after the hg clone substring as shown in the image below:
