There is no reason that we should be default trying to save hg info (particularly since we have moved to github). In my case, this cased a problem in runmanager whereby the compile thread would hard-crash when the vcs function could not find the hg executable. Of course one solution here is to use the save_hg_info (or save_git_info) option in the labconfig file, but since these do not appear in the default files I think it is better to turn off the option be default.
