hg histgrep will let you search a change log for a pattern, such as a deleted string. If you are looking for more than just the first occurrence, be sure to include the –all flag. For me it looked something like this: hg histgrep –all -r 9876:tip “pattern” path/to/file Thanks to Anton for the helpful … Read more
Edit 2020-01-23: Searched quickly and FYI saw that there’s another plugin that seems more VCS agnostic: https://github.com/mhinz/vim-signify There’s a new plugin that does this: vim-gitgutter. It puts the changes in the Vim gutter whenever you save the file. Here’s what it looks like in action:
You can include syntax: regexp at the beginning of .hgignore and then use perl regex syntax to root a directory by using ^. So just ^static should do the work.
Yes, it is. Open up TortoiseHg Workbench on top of your repository. Then click the Manifest button, it looks like this in the toolbar: In the list, find the file you want to look at, right-click and choose File History: In the dialog that opens up, in the toolbar just above the file contents, click … Read more
Removing the .hg folder is sufficient. You will lose the VCS metadata (project history, previous versions of all files), which is stored there.
So you have this: o–o–o–A–B <- older unnecessary head \ 1–2–3–4–5–6 <- newer ‘good’ head …and you don’t need A and B, absolutely, 100% sure. If you aren’t sure, and there are possibly salvageable things in A and B, better merge the heads to combine the changes. As Aaron said, Mercurial is good at it. … Read more
In official pip documentation in section VCS Support: Mercurial The supported schemes are: hg+http, hg+https, hg+static-http and hg+ssh: -e hg+http://hg.myproject.org/MyProject/#egg=MyProject -e hg+https://hg.myproject.org/MyProject/#egg=MyProject -e hg+ssh://[email protected]/MyProject/#egg=MyProject You can also specify a revision number, a revision hash, a tag name or a local branch name: -e hg+http://hg.myproject.org/MyProject/@da39a3ee5e6b#egg=MyProject -e hg+http://hg.myproject.org/MyProject/@2019#egg=MyProject -e hg+http://hg.myproject.org/MyProject/@v1.0#egg=MyProject -e hg+http://hg.myproject.org/MyProject/@special_feature#egg=MyProject The syntax is the same … Read more
There are several ways to do this. Before you commit, you can use hg diff –git to show what was renamed: $ hg diff –git diff –git a/theTest.txt b/aTest.txt rename from theTest.txt rename to aTest.txt Note that this only works if you used hg mv, hg rename, or mv and hg addremove –similarity 100.

The only way I found to convert a Mercurial repo to Git, while keeping all the branches, was to use GitHub’s importer. This was also the easiest since it’s all done online. Nothing local to install, no command line stuff. Main idea Use Github’s importer to convert Bitbucket Mercurial repo to GitHub Git repo. Then … Read more
Just merge feature-branch into default then close feature-branch: $ hg checkout default $ hg merge feature-branch $ hg commit $ hg checkout feature-branch $ hg commit –close-branch There is no more clean and sensible way (that I’m aware of) to “make feature-branch the default”. One thing that wouldn’t be as nice, but you could do, … Read more
