Bug ID: 6889 Summary: Unclear how to tell in advance where plain `hg update' will send you or how to go back Product: Mercurial Version: 6.7.4 Hardware: PC OS: NetBSD Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: feature Priority: wish Component: Mercurial Assignee: bugzi...@mercurial-scm.org Reporter: mercurial-bugzi...@campbell.mumble.net CC: mercurial-de...@mercurial-scm.org Python Version: --- `hg update' (with no [-r] REV argument) will pick some reasonable choice of changeset to update to. But it's not clear how to tell in advance what changeset that will be, particularly if there's multiple heads and topics involved. And if I do that and find it's not where I wanted to go, but I didn't record in advance what `hg parent' or `hg log -r .' or whatever said, it's not clear how to go back to the state I was in before. Is there a way to make `hg update' do a dry run and print what it would update to (and whether there are any uncommitted changes that would have to be merged), without actually changing any state? Failing that, is there a way to reverse the effect of `hg update' and go back to the changeset I was at before? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Mercurial-devel mailing list Mercurial-devel@lists.mercurial-scm.org https://lists.mercurial-scm.org/mailman/listinfo/mercurial-devel
