annotate doc/hg.1.txt @ 1146:9061f79c6c6f
grep: extend functionality, add man page entry, add unit test.
walkchangerevs now returns a two-tuple. Its behaviour is also
extensively commented.
The annotate command's getname function has been factored out to a new
function, trimname, so it can be shared between annotate and grep.
The behaviour of grep has been beefed up, so that it now performs a
number of useful functions.

281 This command searches the current directory and its | |
282 subdirectories. To search an entire repository, move to the root | |
283 of the repository. | |
284 | |
285 If no patterns are given to match, this command prints all file | |

287 | |
288 If you want to feed the output of this command into the "xargs" | |
289 command, use the "-0" option to both this command and "xargs". | |
290 This will avoid the problem of "xargs" treating single filenames | |
291 that contain white space as multiple file names. | |

471 Tags are used to name particular revisions of the repository and are | |

497 | 474 |
498 | 475 If no revision is given, the tip is used. |
438 | 476 |
498 | 477 To facilitate version control, distribution, and merging of tags, |

479 similarly to other project files and can be hand-edited if | |

580 | 583 SPECIFYING SINGLE REVISIONS |
584 --------------------------- | |
585 | |
586 Mercurial accepts several notations for identifying individual | |
587 revisions. | |
588 | |
589 A plain integer is treated as a revision number. Negative | |
590 integers are treated as offsets from the tip, with -1 denoting the | |
591 tip. | |
592 | |
593 A 40-digit hexadecimal string is treated as a unique revision | |
594 identifier. | |
595 | |
596 A hexadecimal string less than 40 characters long is treated as a | |
597 unique revision identifier, and referred to as a short-form | |
598 identifier. A short-form identifier is only valid if it is the | |
599 prefix of one full-length identifier. | |
600 | |
601 Any other string is treated as a tag name, which is a symbolic | |
602 name associated with a revision identifier. Tag names may not | |
603 contain the ":" character. | |
604 | |
605 The reserved name "tip" is a special tag that always identifies | |
606 the most recent revision. | |
607 | |

609 ----------------------------- | |
610 | |
611 When Mercurial accepts more than one revision, they may be | |
612 specified individually, or provided as a continuous range, | |
613 separated by the ":" character. | |
614 | |
615 The syntax of range notation is [BEGIN]:[END], where BEGIN and END | |
616 are revision identifiers. Both BEGIN and END are optional. If | |
617 BEGIN is not specified, it defaults to revision number 0. If END | |
618 is not specified, it defaults to the tip. The range ":" thus | |
619 means "all revisions". | |
620 | |
621 If BEGIN is greater than END, revisions are treated in reverse | |
622 order. | |

Use correct term "closed interval" for ranges.

624 A range acts as a closed interval. This means that a range of 3:5 |
580 | 625 gives 3, 4 and 5. Similarly, a range of 4:2 gives 4, 3, and 2. |
