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 (e.g., commands that are interactive) 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
