Find revisions associated to a given file

[Mathieu Clabaut]

Ok...
I certainly can do a bruteforce search like:

hg log --template '{node}\n' myfile | while read ver; do hg cat -r $ver
myfile > /tmp/hgcat.$$; cmp /tmp/hgcat.$$ myreferencefile && echo "found
$ver";  done

But I wondered if there was a quicker mean by using indexes and hashes to
find the file...
I guess not, and I will stick to the aforementioned script.

Thank you for your advice.
