phase: better error message when --force is needed
When trying to turn a draft changeset into a secret changeset, I was
told:
% hg phase -s .
cannot move 1 changesets to a more permissive phase, use --force
no phases changed
That message struck me as being backwards -- the secret phase feels
less permissive to me since it restricts the changesets from being
pushed.
We don't use the word "permissive" elsewhere, 'hg help phase' talks
about "lower phases" and "higher phases". I therefore reformulated the
error message to be
cannot move 1 changesets to a higher phase, use --force
That is not perfect either, but more in line with the help text. An
alternative could be
cannot move phase backwards for 1 changesets, use --force
which fits better with the help text for --force.

hg qrefresh [-I] [-X] [-e] [-m TEXT] [-l FILE] [-s] [FILE]...
update the current patch
If any file patterns are provided, the refreshed patch will contain only
the modifications that match those patterns; the remaining modifications
will remain in the working directory.
If -s/--short is specified, files currently included in the patch will be
refreshed just like matched files and remain in the patch.
If -e/--edit is specified, Mercurial will start your configured editor for
you to enter a message. In case qrefresh fails, you will find a backup of
your message in ".hg/last-message.txt".
hg add/remove/copy/rename work as usual, though you might want to use git-
style patches (-g/--git or [diff] git=1) to track copies and renames. See
the diffs help topic for more information on the git diff format.
Returns 0 on success.
options:
-e --edit edit commit message
-g --git use git extended diff format
-s --short refresh only files already in the patch and
specified files

-u --user USER add/update author field in patch with given user
-D --currentdate add/update date field in patch with current date
-d --date DATE add/update date field in patch with given date
-I --include PATTERN [+] include names matching the given patterns
-X --exclude PATTERN [+] exclude names matching the given patterns
-m --message TEXT use text as commit message
