==== hg ==== --------------------------------------- Mercurial source code management system --------------------------------------- :Author: Matt Mackall <mpm@selenic.com> :Organization: Mercurial :Manual section: 1 :Manual group: Mercurial Manual SYNOPSIS -------- **hg** *command* [*option*]... [*argument*]... DESCRIPTION ----------- The **hg** command provides a command line interface to the Mercurial system. COMMAND ELEMENTS ---------------- files... indicates one or more filename or relative path filenames; see "FILE NAME PATTERNS" for information on pattern matching path indicates a path on the local machine revision indicates a changeset which can be specified as a changeset revision number, a tag, or a unique substring of the changeset hash value repository path either the pathname of a local repository or the URI of a remote repository. .. include:: hg.1.gendoc.txt FILES ----- ``.hgignore`` This file contains regular expressions (one per line) that describe file names that should be ignored by **hg**. For details, see |hgignore(5)|_. ``.hgtags`` This file contains changeset hash values and text tag names (one of each separated by spaces) that correspond to tagged versions of the repository contents. ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc``, ``$HOME/.hgrc``, ``.hg/hgrc`` This file contains defaults and configuration. Values in ``.hg/hgrc`` override those in ``$HOME/.hgrc``, and these override settings made in the global ``/etc/mercurial/hgrc`` configuration. See |hgrc(5)|_ for details of the contents and format of these files. Some commands (e.g. revert) produce backup files ending in ``.orig``, if the ``.orig`` file already exists and is not tracked by Mercurial, it will be overwritten. BUGS ---- Probably lots, please post them to the mailing list (See Resources below) when you find them.
