Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
tests: use egrep with regular expression branches for compatibility GNU grep allows you to use "a\|b" in a regular expression to match either "a" or "b", but at least Solaris grep does not; only egrep allows for that. And egrep considers "a+" to be "a{1,}" instead of an "a" and a literal plus sign, so escape that as well.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
