Purge (remove untracked files)
Is there a way to delete all untracked files in a mercurial working area? Yes, with the purge extension. Installing Purge This extension is shipped by default with mercurial but turned off. To enable it, modify your config file (.hgrc on Unix, Mercurial.ini on Windows) to add [extensions] purge = This activates the plugin. You can now use $ hg purge to delete all untracked files.
Patches
Mercurial can generate patch files in the unified diff format with the hg diff command.
Follow renames
hg log -f .classpath
Use extdiff to diff 2 revisions
hg extdiff -r tip -r 1000 src/org/compiere/model/MShippingInstr.java
Enable extdiff extension and set Meld as the default diff tool
.hgrc: [extensions] hgext.extdiff = [extdiff] cmd.extdiff = meld
Resolving Conflicts
hg resolve -m file.txt
hg resolve -t {editor} file
Default paths
Edit hgrc file (under .hgrc): [paths] default=ssh://user@server://path/to [paths] default-push = ssh://hg@example.com/path
Basics
hg add / hg addremove (add specific, or add/remove all) hg init hg log (-v & --debug) -r : specific revision hg clone hg commit -m "A small change - for testing the tagging system" hg push
Branches
Create new branch: hg branch development .. commit files .. hg commit Switch between branches: hg update development hg update default Merging branches: hg update development hg merge default ... merges default into development
Tagging
hg tags hg tag -m "Second tag" "V1.01"
Clone the specified tag (exact copy)
hg clone -r "V1.00" TestProject TestProject1 hg clone -r "V1.0.4a_20140217" ssh://user@server://path/to destination
To pull (don't forget to update!)
hg pull hg update
NB: Always use filesystem snapshots using tar (before doing any critical work) so that you can backout gracefully from bad pulls and bad commits.
Viewing revisions for a file
hg log src/org/compiere/model/MShippingInstr.java -v | more
Clone using non-default port
hg clone ssh://user@server:22227//path/to
