<h2>NAME</h2>
<p>
hg - command line interface to the Mercurial source code management system
</p>
<hr />
<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
<p>
<em>hg</em> [-v -d -q -y] &lt;command&gt; [command options] [files]
</p>
<hr />
<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
<p>
The hg(1) command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial system.
</p>
<hr />
<h2>NOTE</h2>
<p>
Many of the hg commands are not yet subdirectory and/or working directory
aware. This means that some commands will only work in the top level
repository directory or will only accept paths and filenames relative to the
top level. Merges and commits, in particular, should be done in the
top-level directory.
</p>
<hr />
<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
<dl>
<dt>
&#8212;debug, -d
</dt>
<dd>
enable debugging output
</dd>
<dt>
&#8212;quiet, -q
</dt>
<dd>
suppress output
</dd>
<dt>
&#8212;verbose, -v
</dt>
<dd>
enable additional output
</dd>
<dt>
&#8212;noninteractive, -y
</dt>
<dd>
do not prompt, assume <em>yes</em> for any required answers
</dd>
</dl>
<hr />
<h2>COMMAND ELEMENTS</h2>
<dl>
<dt>
files &#8230;
</dt>
<dd>
indicates one or more filename or relative path filenames
</dd>
<dt>
path
</dt>
<dd>
indicates a path on the local machine
</dd>
<dt>
revision
</dt>
<dd>
indicates a changeset which can be specified as a changeset id (int),
a tag, or a unique substring of the changeset hash value
</dd>
<dt>
repository path
</dt>
<dd>
is either the pathname of a local repository of the URI of a remote
repository. There are two available URI protocols, hg:// which is
fast and the http:// protocol which is much slower but does not require
python on the web host.
</dd>
</dl>
<hr />
<h2>COMMANDS</h2>
<dl>
<dt>
add [files &#8230;]
</dt>
<dd>
add the given files to the repository. Note that this just schedules the
files for addition at the next hg commit time.
</dd>
<dt>
addremove
</dt>
<dd>
add all new files and remove all missing files from the repository. new
files are ignored if they match any of the patterns in .hgignore
</dd>
<dt>
annotate [-r revision -u -n -c] [files &#8230;]
</dt>
<dd>
list the files with each line showing the revision id responsible
for that line. -u will add the author to the revision id, -c will
print the changeset hash, and -n will &#8230;
</dd>
<dt>
branch &lt;path&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
create a new branch of the repository indicated by path in the current
directory. Note that there should not be a repository already initialized
in the current directory
</dd>
<dt>
checkout [revision]
</dt>
<dd>
check out the indicated version of the repository into the working
directory. Note that currently no merge occurs with changed files
in the working dir.
</dd>
<dt>
commit
</dt>
<dd>
commit all changed files in the working dir to the repository. This uses
the EDITOR environment variable to bring up an editor to add a commit
comment.
</dd>
<dt>
diff [-r revision] [-r revision] [files &#8230;]
</dt>
<dd>
generate a unified diff of the indicated files. If there are no
revisions specified, the working directory file is compared to
the tip, one revision specified indicates a comparison between the
working directory file and the specified revision, two revisions
compares the two versions specified.
</dd>
<dt>
dump &lt;file&gt; [revision]
</dt>
<dd>
print the indicated revision of the file
</dd>
<dt>
dumpmanifest [revision]
</dt>
<dd>
print the indicated revision of the manifest (list of version controlled
files)
</dd>
<dt>
history
</dt>
<dd>
print the revision history of the repository
</dd>
<dt>
init
</dt>
<dd>
initialize a repository in the current directory
</dd>
<dt>
log &lt;file&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
print the revision history of the specified file
</dd>
<dt>
merge &lt;repository path&gt;
</dt>
<dd>
pull any changes from the specified repository to the repository in the
current directory. Use the value of the HGMERGE environment variable
as a program to resolve any merge conflicts between the two repositories.
An implicit commit is done at the end of this process if there were any
merge conflicts. Note that merge does not yet merge with changed files
in the working dir.
</dd>
<dt>
remove [files &#8230;]
</dt>
<dd>
schedule the indicated files for removal from the repository at the next
commit
</dd>
<dt>
serve [-a addr -n name -p port -t templatedir]
</dt>
<dd>
this will start an http server, by default on port 8000, that will
allow browsing the repository using the hgweb interface and will allow
merging from the repository. -a sets the interface address, -p the
port to listen on, -n the name of the repository and -t sets the
location of the template directory.
</dd>
<dt>
status
</dt>
<dd>
list new, changed, and missing files in the working directory
</dd>
