Im currently using mercurial on a windows client.
Im using Tortoise HG but there doesn't seems to be any print function.
How can i get a list of commits that i can print?
And i want it by a specified user.
hg help log + hg help revsets + hg help templating if you want to modify output
List of changesets for author X:
hg log -u X
hg log -r "user(X)"
if there are spaces in authors name use '':
hg log -u 'John Johnson'

How do I view a changeset of a mercurial repository.
I want to get the same output I get with
git show <commit>
How do I do this with hg?
The git show command for commits shows log message and diff. The equivalent Mercurial command could be:
hg log -p -r <REV>
Remember that in Mercurial can refer to a local revision number, changeset, tag, a rangeset of revision numbers ... see the manual page for details and more options.
I have a repo with multiple users. I need to make a python script to retrieve a particular user's latest commits. How do I do that with mercurial?
I was thinking of calling an hg log command thru Python's subprocess call. The problem is how I should call the hg log command such that it tells me a user's latest logs.
Easy (but not efficient or elegant way)
hg log -u USERNAME
or (with revsets)
hg log -r "author(USERNAME)"
with added value
If string starts with "re:", the remainder of the string is treated as a regular expression. To match a user that actually contains "re:", use the prefix "literal:".
I think you should be able to get a single user's latest commit by calling something like this with a system call. (Command-line version follows.)
$ hg log -u your-user-name | head -5
The head -5 gives you the whole abbreviated hg log output for the latest changeset for your-user-name, which includes five lines: changeset, tag, user, date, and summary. If you want only the changeset, you could use something along these lines. (Command-line version, again.)
$ hg log -u mike#fontling.com | head -1 | awk '{print $2}'
Comments suggest this makes unwarranted assumptions about the output format. I agree.
Based on comments, this seems to be the best expression for getting the last commit from a user.
hg log -r "last(author('email#domain.com'))"
hg log -r "last(author('Fred Flintstone'))"
To get the last three . . .
hg log -r "last(author('email#domain.com'), 3)"
hg log -r "last(author('Fred Flintstone'), 3)"
I'm looking for a way to view all of a repository's branches and each file that has changed in that branch. I'm not interested in the file level changes as this report is for simple auditing.
Can this be done?
hg log -b <branchname> --template "{files} "
Plus some post-processing, because output will be like this

Use hg status to get information about files that have changed between revisions. See the revset language for how to select the revisions.
If you want to see file changes between the first and last changesets on branch B:
$ hg status --rev "min(branch(B)):max(branch(B))"
You can even make an alias for this:
[alias]
audit = status --rev "min(branch($1)):max(branch($1))"
and then use hg audit B to get the same result.
If you do hg log myfile -v you see a list of changesets that the file was modified in.
In our case, in the most recent changeset, the file was removed. But you can't tell this by looking at the verbose (-v) output of hg log. Is there an easy Mercurial command you can use to determine if and when a file has been removed from the repo?
Update: Note that this is on a Windows client, and we are using Mercurial v 1.4.3
Update 2: Appears the answers below would work with a more recent version of Mercurial, however an upgrade isn't in the cards right now. Any other ideas for v 1.4.3 ???
You can check which revision deleted a file (any many other interesting features) using revsets:
hg log -r 'removes(<myfile>)'
Some examples:
hg log -r 'removes(build.xml)' // where build.xml used to be in the current directory
hg log -r 'removes("**/build.xml")' // where build.xml may have been in sub directories
See hg help revsets for details.
The --removed flag should get you what you are looking for:
hg log myfile -v --removed
From the help for hg log:
--removed include revisions where files were removed
This is what I use to list all the deleted files in my repository:
hg log --template "{rev}: {file_dels}\n" | grep -v ':\s*$'
We can see all the changesets and the files involved using
hg outgoing -v
but the filenames are all scattered in the list of changesets.
Is there a way to just see a list of all the files that will go out if hg push is issued?
First, create a file with this content:
changeset = "{files}"
file = "{file}\n"
Let's say you call it out-style.txt and put it in your home directory. Then you can give this command:
hg -q outgoing --style ~/out-style.txt | sort -u
A somewhat under-appreciated feature: hg status can show information about changes in file status between arbitrary changesets. This can be used to get a list of files changed between revisions X and Y:
hg status --rev X:Y
In this case, we can use hg outgoing, to find the first outgoing changeset X and then do
hg status --rev X:
to see the files changes since revision X. You can combine this into a single line in your shell:
hg status --rev $(hg outgoing -q --template '{node}' -l 1):
I usually use
hg outgoing -v | grep files
It makes the listing shorter, but doesnt sort. But thus far I havent been in a situation where I want to push so much (and at the same time check the files) that its been a problem.
[Edit]
To do what you want:
Use cut to remove the files: part
For changesets with more than one touched file, use tr to put them on separate lines
Finally sort the resulting output with sort
Like so:
hg outgoing -v |grep files: |cut -c 14- |tr ' ' '\n' |sort -u
You can put this in ~/outgoingfiles.sh or something to have it nice and ready.
I use Torgoise Hg, which is a shell extension that has a "synchronize" view allowing you to see outgoing files before you push them. It's convenient for commits as well, and other things.
A simple hg out will also solve this.
It will list all committed but yet to push checkins.
