The only reason was structural in the code: histedit has “intermediate” nodes which are an implementation detail, and “old” nodes, which are the precursors to the end state. Internally, the lists are separate because you always want to reap “intermediate" nodes, but might want to preserve “old” and in --keep or --abort cases. It might be nice to keep them separate but have one be marked “histedit-internal” and “histedit-before” or something. _______________________________________________ Mercurial-devel mailing list Mercurial-devel@mercurial-scm.org https://www.mercurial-scm.org/mailman/listinfo/mercurial-devel
