Overview
MozillaBuild is a meta-installer that provides everything needed to build Mozilla on Windows, sans Visual C++. Its source lives in https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-build/. Bugs should be filed in mozilla.org :: MozillaBuild. For information about building Mozilla on Win32, see the Mozilla Developer Center page.

- Install MozillaBuild 2.1.0.
- Run ./mach mercurial-setup --update-only to ensure that the version-control-tools repository is current.
