hg log -R tips_and_tricks
I was delighted to find that Steve Losh has begun making a website called hg tip—a site updated on a regular basis with Mercurial tips for both beginner and expert users. The site’s beautifully designed and a pleasure to read. If you use Mercurial, do yourself a favor and go take a look.
(My favorite tip, incidentally, is definitely the tutorial on making a command called nudge
, which allows you to push only the current head by default, rather than all of them. I’ve been using a variant of that, combined with bookmarks, to have Git-style lightweight branching in my Mercurial work when appropriate.)
