Hi everybody, I have the pleasure to announce you the release of the version 
`1.2.0`_ of hgview_.

In a nutshell, this release includes:

- basic support for mq_ extension,

- basic support for `hg-bfiles`_ extension,

- working directory is now displayed as a node of the graph (if there are 
local modifications of course),

- it's now possible to display only the subtree from a given revision (a bit 
like ``hg log -f``)

- it's also possible to have an annotated view (make navigation slower 
however),

- several improvements in the graph filling and rendering mecanisms,

- I also added toolbar icons for the search and goto "quickbars" so they are 
not "hidden" any more to the one reluctant to user manuals,

- it's now possible to go directly to the common ancestor of 2 revisions,

- when on a merge node, it's now possible to choose the parent the diff is 
computed against,

- make search also search in commit messages (it used to search only in diff 
contents),

- and several bugfixes of course.


Notes:
  there are packages_ for debian lenny, squeeze and sid, and for ubuntu hardy, 
interpid, jaunty and karmic. However, for lenny and hardy, provided packages 
won't work on "pure" distribs since hgview 1.2 depends on mercurial 1.1. Thus 
for these 2 distributions, packages will only work if you have installed 
backported mercurial packages.
