hg log [OPTION]... [FILE]

aliases: history

show revision history of entire repository or files

Print the revision history of the specified files or the entire project.

If no revision range is specified, the default is "tip:0" unless --follow is set, in which case the working directory parent is used as the starting revision.

File history is shown without following rename or copy history of files. Use -f/--follow with a filename to follow history across renames and copies. --follow without a filename will only show ancestors or descendants of the starting revision.

By default this command prints revision number and changeset id, tags, non-trivial parents, user, date and time, and a summary for each commit. When the -v/--verbose switch is used, the list of changed files and full commit message are shown.

With --graph the revisions are shown as an ASCII art DAG with the most recent changeset at the top. 'o' is a changeset, '@' is a working directory parent, 'x' is obsolete, and '+' represents a fork where the changeset from the lines below is a parent of the 'o' merge on the same line. Paths in the DAG are represented with '|', '/' and so forth. ':' in place of a '|' indicates one or more revisions in a path are omitted.

Note:

'hg log --patch' may generate unexpected diff output for merge changesets, as it will only compare the merge changeset against its first parent. Also, only files different from BOTH parents will appear in files:.

Note:

For performance reasons, 'hg log FILE' may omit duplicate changes made on branches and will not show removals or mode changes. To see all such changes, use the --removed switch.

Some examples:

• changesets with full descriptions and file lists:

  hg log -v
  

• changesets ancestral to the working directory:

  hg log -f
  

• last 10 commits on the current branch:

  hg log -l 10 -b .
  

• changesets showing all modifications of a file, including removals:

  hg log --removed file.c
  

• all changesets that touch a directory, with diffs, excluding merges:

  hg log -Mp lib/
  

• all revision numbers that match a keyword:

  hg log -k bug --template "{rev}\n"
  

• the full hash identifier of the working directory parent:

  hg log -r . --template "{node}\n"
  

• list available log templates:

  hg log -T list
  

• check if a given changeset is included in a tagged release:

  hg log -r "a21ccf and ancestor(1.9)"
  

• find all changesets by some user in a date range:

  hg log -k alice -d "may 2008 to jul 2008"
  

• summary of all changesets after the last tag:

  hg log -r "last(tagged())::" --template "{desc|firstline}\n"
