useful. As you've probably seen, I've also sent a patch for recording the 
operation by default (implemented by Durham once upon a time, I think). I don't 
mind seeing turning both of these features on by default and we can let time 
tell which of them users find most useful and keep only that, or we can decide 
to keep both. I was about to queue this series, but it uses the old [evolution] 
config section, so at least that will have to change before I can accept it.

think you prefer not storing the information in obsstore. Have you changed mind 
or do you think it could be improved in the future?
  
  
  I have not changed my mind. I think the *feature* is useful, so I'm happy to 
get this in. I don't buy the argument about needing to know the effect in 
changesets that are not known locally, so I think I'd be fine with changing 
this code in the future to calculate the effectflags on the fly. The 
effectflags are currently only used in "hg obslog", which is used much less 
frequently than "hg log", so I think we'd even be fine with not caching the 
values (so they're always calculated on the fly).
