Pager Support

+

+ Some Mercurial commands can produce a lot of output, and Mercurial will + attempt to use a pager to make those commands more pleasant. +

+

+ To set the pager that should be used, set the application variable: +

+
+  [pager]
+  pager = less -FRX
+  
+

+ If no pager is set in the user or repository configuration, Mercurial uses the + environment variable $PAGER. If $PAGER is not set, pager.pager from the default + or system configuration is used. If none of these are set, a default pager will + be used, typically 'less' on Unix and 'more' on Windows. +

+

+ You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the + pager.ignore list: +

+
+  [pager]
+  ignore = version, help, update
+  
+

+ To ignore global commands like 'hg version' or 'hg help', you have + to specify them in your user configuration file. +

+

+ To control whether the pager is used at all for an individual command, + you can use --pager=<value>: +

+
    +
  • use as needed: 'auto'. +
  • require the pager: 'yes' or 'on'. +
  • suppress the pager: 'no' or 'off' (any unrecognized value will also work). +
+

+ To globally turn off all attempts to use a pager, set: +

+
+  [ui]
+  paginate = never
+  
+

+ which will prevent the pager from running. +
