This is great. I've been hitting my head against this ever since I started
using evolve, and I'll be thrilled to have this functionality.
A couple of questions:
- If a revision range is given that ends (or begins, I suppose) with a
hidden changeset, will any intervening hidden changesets also be
temporarily unhidden?
- The recoverable-write commands often pop you into an editor before any
warning can be seen and understood. Should the warning be available in
the editor template?
- The unrecoverable-write commands could probably stand to explain why
they're preventing the operation from happening, but perhaps more
importantly, if you use --hidden with them, will they actually
push/serve/whatever? I guess I can see wanting a complete clone of a
repo, including hidden changesets, so pushing them around would make
sense in that context, but I thought we weren't going there.
Along similar lines, I've also wanted the ability to push and pull secret
changesets between (non-publishing) repositories, but only when specificied
by name like this. Seems like there could be some shared mechanism there,
if it's not just me.
