Re: hg pull: out-of-memory errors? ("abort: group to be added is empty!")

There is nothing untoward in any log as far as I can see. The oom killer 
hasn't come out to play either.

Anyway, xenbits is now running 0.8.1, I'll upgrade as Bryan suggests 
once a new version is called.

We've had 0.8.1 testing on an internal server for a few days so I have 
confidence the upgrade should be safe. As ever, do let me know if any 
problems are seen.

Note that the temporary server that the 3.0-testing tree is redirected 
to is still running 0.7 but will disappear shortly once I move the 
hosting to our new colo centre.

Regards,
James
