Comment: push should really be ignored. Otherwise login prompts don't get flushed out.

Pager Extension

This extension is distributed with Mercurial.

Author: [wiki:DavidSoria David Soria Parra]

Overview

Browse command output using an external pager

Configuration

Configure your .hgrc to enable the extension and set the used pager adding these lines:

  [pager]
  pager = LESS='FSRX' less

If no pager is set, the pager extension uses the environment variable $PAGER. If neither pager.pager, nor $PAGER is set, no pager is used.

If you notice BROKEN PIPE error messages, you can disable them by setting:

  [pager]
  quiet = True

The following options are only supported by the pager extension bundled with Mercurial version 1.1 or higher:

You can disable the pager for certain commands by adding them to the pager.ignore list:

  [pager]
  ignore = version, help, update, push, pull, merge, fetch, convert, clone, record, crecord, grep

You can also enable the pager only for certain commands using pager.attend:

  [pager]
  attend = log

If pager.attend is present, pager.ignore will be ignored.

To ignore global commands like hg version or hg help, you have to specify them in the global .hgrc
