Web page: https://bitbucket.org/facebook/hg-experimental

Excludes:

3. Configuration

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

[extensions]
smartlog =

4. Upstreaming

Contains interesting code and ideas that may be useful elsewhere in Mercurial proper too.

Moving the ellipsis link concept into core first would help us avoid including our own graph sorting node. Currently the extension contains their own sorting and dag filtering code.

The codebase is not yet Python 3 compatible (use of cmp in sorting).

4.1. Future directions

Facebook impact: medium; it is in active use within Facebook.
