Migration Scripts not supported for Mercurial?

After demoing SQL Source Control to my development team to much hoopla, I went about testing more advanced scenarios, including when a migration script would be necessary.

Oops! "Migration scripts are not supported for your source control system" is the message I receive. This is going to complicate our deployments somewhat. Is support of Mercurial for migration scripts being considered in the very near term?

    Yes, we're definitely considering this, especially given the strong voting on our suggestions forum:

    We hope to post an update on the status shortly.

    Out of interest, what were the 'advanced scenarios' that you were testing?

    Sorry it's taken so long to get back on this one....a slew of other projects considerations are splitting my time way too much :)

    The advanced scenarios weren't terribly advanced, things like changing the size of a column referenced by a foreign key, or adding a "not null" property to a column, both things that would normally cause SQLCompare to drop the column (and/or FKs) and recreate them, which could result in a loss of data.
