1.8 +If you are familiar with version control systems and Mercurial in particular,
1.9 +it can be convenient to use this approach to obtain and update the software,
1.10 +although you should be aware that updates made available in the repository may,
1.11 +if deployed, cause the software to not function correctly on occasion, even if
1.12 +attempts are made to avoid such situations. Therefore, you should choose to
1.13 +update with care and be prepared to switch to a "known working" revision if
1.14 +necessary.
