I do get 1.7.5 if clone a new copy. Strange that when I pull to my usual
repo I dont get anything past 1.7.1:

hg pull
pulling from http://hg.nginx.org/nginx
searching for changes
no changes found
grep NGINX_VERSION src/core/nginx.h
#define NGINX_VERSION “1.7.1”
#define NGINX_VER “nginx/” NGINX_VERSION

Ill just use the new copy. Thanks for your help.

You have to update working copy as well, not just pull. Try “hg
update”. And there is also “-u” / “–update” flag for “hg pull”
which does update automatically while pulling new changes.

Thanks again. I’ll make a note to use the “-u” flag next time.
