However, this is a larger big UX change that seems to deserve a wider discussion with more of the community involved. In particular I am not convinced about the `--rev` flag usage. > See the linked comment for more details. > (Sorry for the delay this will involves, I wish the idea had explicitly surfaced earlier). The sprint is not happening and I don't think we should wait for the next sprint (fall?) to move forward with this. Here's a Plan Page I wrote down in response to @marmoute's request D8030 <https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D8030>: on https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/RevisionAsWDirPlan. The decision we reached was to use the name `--at-rev` on that patch. However, and if I understood correctly, the general sentiment was not that all similar arguments (like the on in this patch) should use that but rather that we should pick a name that sounded for each command. So in the case of this patch, I suppose `--from` is fine? We should mark it EXPERIMENTAL, though.
