Make status look into subrepositories by default:
$ echo '[defaults]' >> $HGRCPATH
$ echo 'status = -S' >> $HGRCPATH
$ echo 'diff = --nodates -S' >> $HGRCPATH
Create test repository:
$ hg init
$ echo x1 > x.txt
$ hg add x.txt
$ hg init foo
$ cd foo
$ echo y1 > y.txt
$ hg add y.txt
$ hg init bar
$ cd bar
$ echo z1 > z.txt
$ hg add z.txt
$ cd ..
$ echo 'bar = bar' > .hgsub
$ hg add .hgsub
$ cd ..
$ echo 'foo = foo' > .hgsub
$ hg add .hgsub
$ hg commit -m 0-0-0
committing subrepository foo
committing subrepository foo/bar
$ cd foo
$ echo y2 >> y.txt
$ hg commit -m 0-1-0
$ cd bar
$ echo z2 >> z.txt
$ hg commit -m 0-1-1
$ cd ..
$ hg commit -m 0-2-1
committing subrepository bar
$ cd ..
$ hg commit -m 1-2-1
committing subrepository foo
