Hello Iulians,

sorry for my latency in replying, been a bit busy lately.

I am going to answer your mail with more details later today,
but just a few "spoilers" for now:

> b) hg log <- can produce huge output

Err... No way.

Please work harder on this. Discarding output from `hg log`
is simply not acceptable. We can do (much) better.

> d) hg merge <- has prompts
> By default, if there will be any prompts the merge will abort.

Again, no.

A merge prompt is "Dear user, I have found some conflicts while
merging this two files. I would really appreciate your help in solving
them."
Replying "F*ck you" to such a gentle request from mercurial
would be very unpolite. We are a bunch of nice guys.

Cheers for now,
Giovanni
