209 This command searches the current directory and its | |
210 subdirectories. To search an entire repository, move to the root | |
211 of the repository. | |
212 | |
213 If no patterns are given to match, this command prints all file | |
214 names. | |
215 | |
216 If you want to feed the output of this command into the "xargs" | |
217 command, use the "-0" option to both this command and "xargs". | |
218 This will avoid the problem of "xargs" treating single filenames | |
219 that contain white space as multiple file names. | |

497 | 248 Print a list of version controlled files for the given revision. |
249 | |
250 The manifest is the list of files being version controlled. If no revision | |
251 is given then the tip is used. | |

256 pull <repository path>:: | |
498 | 257 Pull changes from a remote repository to a local one. |
497 | 258 |
498 | 259 This finds all changes from the repository at the specified path |
260 or URL and adds them to the local repository. By default, this | |
261 does not update the copy of the project in the working directory. | |
438 | 262 |
263 options: | |
264 -u, --update update the working directory to tip after pull | |
265 | |
266 push <destination>:: | |
497 | 267 Push changes from the local repository to the given destination. |
268 | |
498 | 269 This is the symmetrical operation for pull. It helps to move |
270 changes from the current repository to a different one. If the | |
271 destination is local this is identical to a pull in that directory | |
272 from the current one. | |
438 | 273 |
274 The other currently available push method is SSH. This requires an | |
275 accessible shell account on the destination machine and a copy of | |
276 hg in the remote path. Destinations are specified in the following | |
277 form: | |
278 | |
279 ssh://[user@]host[:port]/path | |

580 | 474 SPECIFYING SINGLE REVISIONS |
475 --------------------------- | |
476 | |
477 Mercurial accepts several notations for identifying individual | |
478 revisions. | |
479 | |
480 A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative | |
481 integers are treated as offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the | |
482 tip. | |
483 | |
484 A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision | |
485 identifier. | |
486 | |
487 A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a | |
488 unique revision identifier, and referred to as a short-form | |
489 identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the | |
490 prefix of one full-length identifier. | |
491 | |
492 Any other string is treated as a tag name, which is a symbolic | |
493 name associated with a revision identifier. Tag names may not | |
494 contain the ":" character. | |
495 | |
496 The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies | |
497 the most recent revision. | |
498 | |
499 SPECIFYING MULTIPLE REVISIONS | |
500 ----------------------------- | |
501 | |
502 When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be | |
503 specified individually, or provided as a continuous range, | |
504 separated by the ":" character. | |
505 | |
506 The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END | |
507 are revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If | |
508 BEGIN is not specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END | |
509 is not specified, it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus | |
510 means "all revisions". | |
511 | |
512 If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse | |
513 order. | |
514 | |
