As discussed at multiple sprints now, it'd be a good idea to unify the
locate and manifest commands. That command is now 'hg files':
--
hg files [OPTION]... [PATTERN]...
list tracked files
Print files under Mercurial control in the working directory or specified
revision whose names match the given patterns (excluding removed files).
If no patterns are given to match, this command prints the names of all
files under Mercurial control in the working copy.
Examples:
- list all files under the current directory:
hg files .
- shows sizes and flags for current revision:
hg files -vr .
- list all files named README:
hg files -I "**/README"
- list all binary files:
hg files "set:binary()"
- find files containing a regular expression:
hg files "set:grep('bob')"
- search tracked file contents with xargs and grep:
hg files -0 | xargs -0 grep foo
See :hg:'help pattern' and :hg:'help revsets' for more information on
specifying file patterns.
Returns 0 if a match is found, 1 otherwise.
