In 2.4 only hg log (and a few others) would support effectively hiding &quot;hidden&quot; changesets. Now all hg commands are transparently compatible with the hidden revision concept. This is a considerable step towards <a class="reference" href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ChangesetEvolution">changeset evolution</a>, the next-generation collaboration technology that I'm developing for Mercurial.</p> <!-- This approach is compatible with the idea behind mercurial to provide simple commands for --> <!-- simple uses and increase the complexity of the commands with the complexity of the use. --> <img alt="https://fosdem.org/2013/assets/flyer-thumb-0505d19dbf3cf6139bc7490525310f8e253e60448a29ed4313801b723d5b2ef1.png" class="align-center" src="https://fosdem.org/2013/assets/flyer-thumb-0505d19dbf3cf6139bc7490525310f8e253e60448a29ed4313801b723d5b2ef1.png" /> <p>The 2.5 cycle is almost over, but there is no time to rest yet, Saturday the 2th of February, I will <a class="reference" href="https://fosdem.org/2013/schedule/event/changeset_evolution_with_mercurial_the_next_generation_of_dvcs_features/">give a talk about changeset evolution concept</a> at <a class="reference" href="https://fosdem.org/2013/">FOSDEM</a> in the Mozilla Room. This talk in an updated version of the one I gave at <cite>OSDC.fr 2012</cite> (<a class="reference" href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xuh369_osdc-fr-2012-changesets-evolution-mercurial-secoue-le-monde-du-dvcs_tech#.UP6rW6j0rEw">video in french</a>).</p> <p>The week after, I'm crossing the channel to attend the <a class="reference" href="http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/2.6sprint">Mercurial 2.6 Sprint</a> hosted by Facebook London. I expect a lot of discussion about the user interface and network access of changeset evolution.</p> <img alt="The HG 2.3 sprint" class="align-center" src="http://www.logilab.org/file/92955?vid=download" /> 2013-01-22T17:17-01:00 Pierre-Yves David
