Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
bookmarks: abort directly on invalid name This consolidates the abort message for a bookmark name containing invalid characters into one place, and renames the valid() method to checkvalid() to reflect the fact that it's no longer a predicate.

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.
