hg mecurial abort: path is inside nested repo error

Just been having to use Mecurial to get the Orchard source code. I first used TortoiseHg to get the source and then used the Update command to switch to 1.x "branch" but I'd always get this error. abort: path 'src\Orchard.Web\Modules\Orchard.Alias\AdminMenu.cs' is inside nested repo 'src\\Orchard.Web\\Modules\\Orchard.Alias' So after a few attempts, all I did was delete everything apart from the .hg folder and then tried to update, this managed to work. Who knows if this is the "correct" way to fix it.

    You may have accidentally copied a .hg directory into src\\Orchard.Web\\Modules\\Orchard.Alias. Moving that away (assuming you don't intend it to be there) may fix it if this happens again.
