Help: identify
hg identify [-nibtB] [-r REV] [SOURCE]
aliases: id
identify the working directory or specified revision
Print a summary identifying the repository state at REV using one or two parent hash identifiers, followed by a "+" if the working directory has uncommitted changes, the branch name (if not default), a list of tags, and a list of bookmarks.
When REV is not given, print a summary of the current state of the repository including the working directory. Specify -r. to get information of the working directory parent without scanning uncommitted changes.
Specifying a path to a repository root or Mercurial bundle will cause lookup to operate on that repository/bundle.
Template:
The following keywords are supported in addition to the common template keywords and functions. See also 'hg help templates'.
- dirty
- String. Character "+" denoting if the working directory has uncommitted changes.
- id
- String. One or two nodes, optionally followed by "+".
- parents
- List of strings. Parent nodes of the changeset.
Examples:
- generate a build identifier for the working directory:
hg id --id > build-id.dat
- find the revision corresponding to a tag:
hg id -n -r 1.3
- check the most recent revision of a remote repository:
hg id -r tip https://www.mercurial-scm.org/repo/hg/
See 'hg log' for generating more information about specific revisions, including full hash identifiers.
Returns 0 if successful.
