117 | <para>After installed, two very quick and simple tests should run correctly.

---|
123 | EOF</userinput></screen>

124 |
|
---|
125 | <para>where you must replace <user_name> and <your@mail> (mail
|
---|
126 | is optional and can be omitted). With the user identity defined, run
|
---|
127 | <command>hg debuginstall</command> and several lines will be displayed,
|
---|
128 | the last one reading "no problems detected". Another quick and simple test
|
---|
129 | is just <command>hg</command>, which should output basic commands that can
|
---|
130 | be used with <command>hg</command>.</para>
