import: wrap a transaction around the whole command...
import: wrap a transaction around the whole command Now 'rollback' after 'import' is less surprising: it rolls back all of the imported changesets, not just the last one. As an extra added benefit, you don't need 'rollback -f' after 'import --bypass', which was an undesired side effect of fixing issue2998 (59e8bc22506e).. Note that this is a different take on issue963, which complained that rollback after importing multiple patches returned the working dir parent to the starting point, not to the second-last patch applied. Since we now rollback the entire import, returning the working dir to the starting point is entirely logical. So this change also undoes a732eebf1958, the fix to issue963, and updates its tests accordingly. Bottom line: rollback after import was weird before issue963, understandable since the fix for issue963, and even better now.

Mercurial supports several ways to specify individual revisions.
A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative integers are
treated as sequential offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the tip,
-2 denoting the revision prior to the tip, and so forth.
A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision
identifier.
A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a
unique revision identifier and is referred to as a short-form
identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the prefix
of exactly one full-length identifier.
Any other string is treated as a tag or branch name. A tag name is a
symbolic name associated with a revision identifier. A branch name
denotes the tipmost revision of that branch. Tag and branch names must
not contain the ":" character.
The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies the
most recent revision.
The reserved name "null" indicates the null revision. This is the
revision of an empty repository, and the parent of revision 0.
The reserved name "." indicates the working directory parent. If no
working directory is checked out, it is equivalent to null. If an
uncommitted merge is in progress, "." is the revision of the first
parent.
