You can do an actual UNDO with a
*hg rollback*
But as previous said, this only works for the last commit. When undoing 
with a rollback, this commit will not show up in the changelog

You can undo the changes of a former commit using
*hg backout*
Backout undoes the given earlier commit and creates a new head. You have to
hg merge
and
hg commit after that. And this actions will be logged, e.g. they will 
show up in the changelog.

Best regards
