Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
revset: use list instead of tuple for compatibility with python before 2.6 'string elements'.split() instead of explicitly typing a list of strings is used. This is done in other parts of Mercurial code, too.

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.
