Contents
1. Overview
The shelve extension lets you set your pending changes aside temporarily and restore them at a later time. It is useful in situations where you need to switch tasks, but are not ready to commit your current work.
2. Configuration
As of Mercurial 5.1, shelve is part of Mercurial core and is enabled by default.
If you are using an earlier version of Mercurial, configure your .hgrc to enable the extension by adding following lines:
[extensions] shelve=
3. Usage
Temporarily stash away changes:
hg shelve
List all existing shelves:
hg shelve --list
Get the changes back into the working directory:
hg unshelve
Shelves can be given custom names (the default name is your active bookmark or branch):
hg shelve --name <name> hg unshelve <name>
See hg shelve --help for advance usage.
