Bookmarks Extension

This extension is distributed (as of 24.10.2008) with Mercurial.

Author: David Soria Parra

Download site: http://www.bitbucket.org/segv/hgbookmarks/overview/

Announcement: http://selenic.com/pipermail/mercurial/2008-October/021749.html

README: http://www.bitbucket.org/segv/hgbookmarks/src/tip/README

Overview

Bookmarks are markers on commits that move on commit. Therefore you can do a 'hg book newfeature' and work on that and the bookmark will move forward with every commit you do.

Bookmarks can be used to access the commit whenever a usual lookup is allowed, therefore you can merge and update bookmarks by their names.

Bookmarks are stored localy. You can use rsync or scp to copy the .hg/bookmarks file to a remote repository. You can also use hg id -r <bookmark> <repourl> to get the id of a bookmark (and therefore might manually track it).

An example usage: 

$ hg book ds/feature-x
.. hack .. hack ..
$ hg commit
.. hack .. hack ..
$ hg commit
$ hg update 4
# go back to old rev
$ hg merge ds/feature-x

Configuration
