mq: patch naming shortcuts This adds some more options to the mq lookup routine. It allows you to use shortcuts in naming patches to push or pop. You can now use: 1) a full patch name 2) a number to indicate an offset in the series file 3) a unique substring of the patch name 4) patchname[-+]num to indicate an offset from a given patch. For case #3 substrings are allowed. qtip and qbase are aliases for the top and bottom of the applied patch queue, unless they are already in the series file as patch names.

#!/bin/sh

hg init a
echo a > a/a
hg --cwd a ci -Ama

hg clone a c

hg clone a b
echo b >> b/a
hg --cwd b ci -mb

echo % push should push to default when default-push not set
hg --cwd b push | sed 's/pushing to.*/pushing/'

echo % push should push to default-push when set
echo 'default-push = ../c' >> b/.hg/hgrc
hg --cwd b push | sed 's/pushing to.*/pushing/'
