Public bug reported:

From mailing list mercurial-packag...@mercurial-scm.org:

Hello all,

Monday evening we got a report from a user about a critical bug that can
destroy the changelog of repositories. The bug is in Mercurial 6.7 only
and affects repositories with low number of revisions that currently
have an inlined changelog and are configured with some pretxn hooks.

We will try yank releases  6.7.1, 6.7.2 and 6.7.3 from Pypi as soon as
possible and have published a 6.7.4 that addresses this issue. Since
this is the packaging list, I urge you to also remove those versions
from your package builds and switch to 6.7.4.

You can find more info in the release notes and the changesets
mentioned:

https://wiki.mercurial-scm.org/Release6.7

If you were affected by this bug, there is a chance that you can recover your 
lost index by restoring it from undo.backup.00changelog.i.bck.
Thank you and sorry for the trouble,
Raphaƫl

Please update package soon as possible!

Affected: Ubuntu 24.04+
