177 | 50 |
51 COMMANDS | |
52 -------- | |
438 | 53 |
177 | 54 add [files ...]:: |
497 | 55 Schedule files to be version controlled and added to the repository. |
56 | |
498 | 57 The files will be added to the repository at the next commit. |
177 | 58 |
59 addremove:: | |
497 | 60 Add all new files and remove all missing files from the repository. |
61 | |
62 New files are ignored if they match any of the patterns in .hgignore. As | |
498 | 63 with add, these changes take effect at the next commit. |
177 | 64 |
438 | 65 annotate [-r <rev> -u -n -c] [files ...]:: |
497 | 66 List changes in files, showing the revision id responsible for each line |
67 | |
68 This command is useful to discover who did a change or when a change took | |
69 place. | |
70 | |
438 | 71 options: |
72 -r, --revision <rev> annotate the specified revision | |
73 -u, --user list the author | |
74 -c, --changeset list the changeset | |
75 -n, --number list the revision number (default) | |
177 | 76 |
438 | 77 cat <file> [revision]:: |
497 | 78 Output to stdout the given revision for the specified file. |
79 | |
498 | 80 If no revision is given then the tip is used. |
177 | 81 |
485 | 82 clone [-U] <source> [dest]:: |
497 | 83 Create a copy of an existing repository in a new directory. |
84 | |
498 | 85 If the destination directory is specified but doesn't exist, it is |
497 | 86 created. If no destination directory is specified, it defaults to the |
87 current directory. | |
88 | |
498 | 89 The source is added to the new repository's .hg/hgrc file to be used in |
497 | 90 future pulls. |
91 | |
498 | 92 For efficiency, hardlinks are used for cloning whenever the |
93 source and destination are on the same filesystem. | |
497 | 94 |
95 options: | |
505 | 96 -U, --noupdate do not update the new working directory |
497 | 97 |
98 commit [-A -t -l <file> -t <text> -u <user> -d <datecode>] [files...]:: | |
498 | 99 Commit changes to the given files into the repository. |
497 | 100 |
498 | 101 If a list of files is omitted, all changes reported by "hg status" |
102 will be commited. | |
497 | 103 |
498 | 104 The HGEDITOR or EDITOR environment variables are used to start an |
105 editor to add a commit comment. | |
497 | 106 |
107 Options: | |
108 | |
109 -A, --addremove run addremove during commit | |
110 -t, --text <text> use <text> as commit message | |
111 -l, --logfile <file> show the commit message for the given file | |
112 -d, --date <datecode> record datecode as commit date | |
113 -u, --user <user> record user as commiter | |
114 | |
115 aliases: ci | |
116 | |
117 copy <source> <dest>:: | |
118 Mark <dest> file as a copy or rename of a <source> one | |
119 | |
120 This command takes effect for the next commit. | |
121 | |
122 diff [-r revision] [-r revision] [files ...]:: | |
123 Show differences between revisions for the specified files. | |
124 | |
125 Differences between files are shown using the unified diff format. | |
126 | |
498 | 127 When two revision arguments are given, then changes are shown |
128 between those revisions. If only one revision is specified then | |
129 that revision is compared to the working directory, and, when no | |
130 revisions are specified, the working directory files are compared | |
131 to its parent. | |
497 | 132 |
133 export [revision]:: | |
134 Print the changeset header and diffs for a particular revision. | |
135 | |
136 The information shown in the changeset header is: author, changeset hash, | |
137 parent and commit comment. | |
138 | |
139 forget [files]:: | |
140 Undo an 'hg add' scheduled for the next commit. | |
141 | |
142 heads:: | |
143 Show all repository head changesets. | |
144 | |
498 | 145 Repository "heads" are changesets that don't have children |
146 changesets. They are where development generally takes place and | |
147 are the usual targets for update and merge operations. | |
497 | 148 |
149 identify:: | |
150 Print a short summary of the current state of the repo. | |
151 | |
152 This summary identifies the repository state using one or two parent | |
153 hash identifiers, followed by a "+" if there are uncommitted changes | |
154 in the working directory, followed by a list of tags for this revision. | |
155 | |
156 aliases: id | |
157 | |
158 import [-p <n> -b <base> -q] <patches>:: | |
159 Import a list of patches and commit them individually. | |
160 | |
161 options: | |
162 -p, --strip <n> directory strip option for patch. This has the same | |
163 meaning as the correnponding patch option | |
164 -b <path> base directory to read patches from | |
165 | |
166 aliases: patch | |
167 | |
496 | 168 init:: |
169 Initialize a new repository in the current directory. | |
177 | 170 |
509 | 171 log [file]:: |
172 Print the revision history of the specified file or the entire project. | |
177 | 173 |
509 | 174 By default this command outputs: changeset id and hash, tags, |
175 parents, user, date and time, and a summary for each commit. The | |
176 -v switch adds some more detail, such as changed files, manifest | |
177 hashes or message signatures. | |
178 | |
179 aliases: history | |
497 | 180 |
438 | 181 manifest [revision]:: |
497 | 182 Print a list of version controlled files for the given revision. |
183 | |
184 The manifest is the list of files being version controlled. If no revision | |
185 is given then the tip is used. | |
438 | 186 |
187 parents:: | |
188 Print the working directory's parent revisions. | |
189 | |
190 pull <repository path>:: | |
498 | 191 Pull changes from a remote repository to a local one. |
497 | 192 |
498 | 193 This finds all changes from the repository at the specified path |
194 or URL and adds them to the local repository. By default, this | |
195 does not update the copy of the project in the working directory. | |
438 | 196 |
197 options: | |
198 -u, --update update the working directory to tip after pull | |
199 | |
200 push <destination>:: | |
497 | 201 Push changes from the local repository to the given destination. |
202 | |
498 | 203 This is the symmetrical operation for pull. It helps to move |
204 changes from the current repository to a different one. If the | |
205 destination is local this is identical to a pull in that directory | |
206 from the current one. | |
438 | 207 |
208 The other currently available push method is SSH. This requires an | |
209 accessible shell account on the destination machine and a copy of | |
210 hg in the remote path. Destinations are specified in the following | |
211 form: | |
212 | |
213 ssh://[user@]host[:port]/path | |
214 | |
215 rawcommit [-p -d -u -F -t -l]:: | |
497 | 216 Lowlevel commit, for use in helper scripts. |
217 | |
218 This command is not intended to be used by normal users, as it is | |
219 primarily useful for importing from other SCMs. | |

221 recover:: |
497 | 222 Recover from an interrupted commit or pull. |
223 | |
224 This command tries to fix the repository status after an interrupted | |
225 operation. It should only be necessary when Mercurial suggests it. | |

497 | 228 Schedule the indicated files for removal from the repository. |
229 | |
498 | 230 This command shedules the files to be removed at the next commit. |
231 This only removes files from the current branch, not from the | |
232 entire project history. | |

177 | 247 |
248 status:: | |
438 | 249 Show changed files in the working directory. |
250 | |
497 | 251 The codes used to show the status of files are: |
252 | |
438 | 253 C = changed |
254 A = added | |
255 R = removed | |
256 ? = not tracked | |
257 | |
258 tag [-t <text> -d <datecode> -u <user>] <name> [revision]:: | |
497 | 259 Name a particular revision using <name>. |
260 | |
261 Tags are used to name particular revisions of the repository and are | |
262 very useful to compare different revision, to go back to significant | |
498 | 263 earlier versions or to mark branch points as releases, etc. |
497 | 264 |
498 | 265 If no revision is given, the tip is used. |
438 | 266 |
498 | 267 To facilitate version control, distribution, and merging of tags, |
268 they are stored as a file named ".hgtags" which is managed | |
269 similarly to other project files and can be hand-edited if | |
270 necessary. | |
271 | |
438 | 272 options: |
273 -t, --text <text> message for tag commit log entry | |
274 -d, --date <datecode> datecode for commit | |
275 -u, --user <user> user for commit | |
177 | 276 |
498 | 277 Note: Mercurial also has support for "local tags" that are not |
278 version-controlled or distributed which are stored in the .hg/hgrc | |
279 file. | |

292 update [-m -C] [revision]:: | |
498 | 293 Update the working directory to the specified revision. |
438 | 294 |
498 | 295 By default, update will refuse to run if doing so would require |
296 merging or discarding local changes. | |
297 | |
298 With the -m option, a merge will be performed. | |
299 | |
300 With the -C option, local changes will be lost. | |

|
354 names that should be ignored by hg. |
177 | 355 |
356 .hgtags:: | |
438 | 357 This file contains changeset hash values and text tag names (one of each |
177 | 358 seperated by spaces) that correspond to tagged versions of the repository |
359 contents. | |
360 | |
438 | 361 $HOME/.hgrc, .hg/hgrc:: |
362 This file contains defaults and configuration. Values in .hg/hgrc | |
363 override those in .hgrc. | |
364 | |
365 NAMED REPOSITORIES | |
366 ------------------ | |
367 | |
487 | 368 To give symbolic names to a repository, create a section in .hgrc |
369 or .hg/hgrc containing assignments of names to paths. Example: | |
438 | 370 |
487 | 371 ----------------- |
438 | 372 [paths] |
373 hg = http://selenic.com/hg | |

377 | |
498 | 378 LOCAL TAGS |
379 ---------- | |
380 | |
381 To create tags that are local to the repository and not distributed or | |
382 version-controlled, create an hgrc section like the following: | |
383 | |
384 ---------------- | |
385 [tags] | |
386 working = 2dcced388cab3677a8f543c3c47a0ad34ac9d435 | |
387 tested = 12e0fdbc57a0be78f0e817fd1d170a3615cd35da | |
388 ---------------- | |
389 | |
390 | |
487 | 391 HOOKS |
392 ----- | |
393 | |
394 Mercurial supports a set of 'hook', commands that get automatically | |
395 executed by various actions such as starting or finishing a commit. To | |
396 specify a hook, simply create an hgrc section like the following: | |
397 | |
398 ----------------- | |
399 [hooks] | |
400 precommit = echo "this hook gets executed immediately before a commit" | |
401 commit = hg export $NODE | mail -s "new commit $NODE" commit-list | |

321 | 405 NON_TRANSPARENT PROXY SUPPORT |
438 | 406 ----------------------------- |
321 | 407 |
487 | 408 To access a Mercurial repository through a proxy, create a file |
409 $HOME/.hgrc in the following format: | |
321 | 410 |
487 | 411 -------------- |
321 | 412 [http_proxy] |
413 host=myproxy:8080 | |
414 user=<username> | |
415 passwd=<password> | |
416 no=<localhost1>,<localhost2>,<localhost3>,... | |
487 | 417 -------------- |
321 | 418 |
498 | 419 "user" and "passwd" fields are used for authenticating proxies, "no" is a |
420 comma-separated list of local host names to not proxy. | |
321 | 421 |
177 | 422 BUGS |
