Tutorial - sharing a change with another repository

In TutorialFirstChange, we created a [:ChangeSet:changeset] in the my-hello-new-output [:Repository:repository]. Now we want to propagate that change somewhere else.

Following good Mercurial style, let's first [:Clone:clone] our original repository.

$ cd ..
$ hg clone my-hello my-hello-share

We can use the tip command to find out what the [:Tip:tip] in each repository is. (Remember, the tip is the most recent changeset.) We pass in the -q ("be quiet") option to keep Mercurial from printing a complete description of the tip.

$ cd my-hello-share
$ hg -q tip
1:82e55d328c8c
$ cd ../my-hello-new-output
$ hg -q tip
2:a58809af174d

As we can see, the tip is different in each. Let's go back to my-hello-share and propagate our new changeset in there. To do this, we use the pull command, which [:Pull:pulls] all changesets that are in the other repository, but not yet in this one, into this one.

$ cd ../my-hello-share
$ hg pull ../my-hello-new-output
pulling from ../my-hello-new-output
searching for changes
adding changesets
adding manifests
adding file changes
added 1 changesets with 1 changes to 1 files
(run 'hg update' to get a working copy)

Unlike other common mercurial commands, pull is chatty. In this case, the pull has succeeded.

The last line of output is important. By default, Mercurial does not update the [:WorkingDirectory:working directory] after a pull. This means that although the repository now contains the changeset, the file hello.c in the working directory still has its old pre-pull contents.

We can [:Update:update] this file (and any others that were changed during the pull) by following Mercurial's reminder:

$ hg update
1 files updated, 0 files merged, 0 files removed, 0 files unresolved

At this point, we can check and see that my-hello-share and my-hello-new-output have identical contents and revision histories.

To share a change with another person, we continue to TutorialExport.
