I add the following to .hg/hgrc:(I use changegroup since I don't think we need refresh per changeset, please point out if I am wrong.)
[hooks]
changegroup = hg update >&2 && ikiwiki --setup path.to.setup.file --refresh
- post-commit = ikiwiki --setup path.to.setup.file --refresh

-I tried the follwing commands in $SRC:
-
- touch deadlocktest.mdwn
- hg add
- hg ci
-No deadlock happens. (Also I push to the $SRC from another machine, again, no deadlock. If there is conflicts between $SRC and my own repo, hg pull will abort. You have to pull, merge and push again.)

I have a few notes on mercurial usage after trying it out for a while:
