SPECIFYING SINGLE REVISIONS |
41 |
--------------------------- |
|
42 |
||
43 |
Mercurial accepts several notations for identifying individual |
|
44 |
revisions. |
|
45 |
||
46 |
A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative |
|
47 |
integers are treated as offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the |
|
48 |
tip. |
|
49 |
||
50 |
A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision |
|
51 |
identifier. |
|
52 |
||
53 |
A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a |
|
54 |
unique revision identifier, and referred to as a short-form |
|
55 |
identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the |
|
56 |
prefix of one full-length identifier. |
|
57 |
||
58 |
Any other string is treated as a tag name, which is a symbolic |
|
59 |
name associated with a revision identifier. Tag names may not |
|
60 |
contain the ":" character. |
|
61 |
||
62 |
The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies |
|
63 |
the most recent revision. |
|
64 |
||
65 |
SPECIFYING MULTIPLE REVISIONS |
|
66 |
----------------------------- |
|
67 |
||
68 |
When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be |
|
69 |
specified individually, or provided as a continuous range, |
|
70 |
separated by the ":" character. |
|
71 |
||
72 |
The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END |
|
73 |
are revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If |
|
74 |
BEGIN is not specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END |
|
75 |
is not specified, it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus |
|
76 |
means "all revisions". |
|
77 |
||
78 |
If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse |
|
79 |
order. |
|
80 |

Use correct term "closed interval" for ranges.

|
81 |
A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 |
580 | 82 |
gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 4:2 gives 4, 3, and 2. |
