Shelve Extension

This extension is not distributed with Mercurial.

Repository: http://bitbucket.org/tksoh/hgshelve/

1. Overview

The shelve extension provides the shelve command to lets you choose which parts of the changes in a working directory you'd like to set aside temporarily, at the granularity of patch hunks. You can later restore the shelved patch hunks using the unshelve command.

The shelve extension has been adapted from Mercurial's RecordExtension.

2. Compatibility with Mercurial

Mercurial	Shelve Extension
1.5.x and later	d95c583611f8 or later

1.1.x - 1.2.x	7090a3ed2da7
< 1.1.x	ef85a6331d31

3. Configuration

Configure your .hgrc to enable the extension by adding following lines:

[extensions]
hgshelve=/path/to/hgshelve.py

or place hgshelve.py in your 'hgext' directory and add the following lines:

[extensions]
hgext.hgshelve=

If you use the win32text extension, make sure you have the following lines in your .hgrc or mercurial.ini. This enables automatic line-ending translation when applying patches.

[patch]
eol = auto
