Long-standing issues about what functionality to bring into core.

  • (Approved) Facebook’s reflog extension
    • renamed to ‘journal’
  • (Approved) progress bar (held up by bug; assigned to Augie)
  • (Approved) color in core (256 color patches will be accepted)
  • (Approved) pager in core (held up by editor / piping bugs)
  • (Approved) backups (finding and restoring bundles)
    • rename to something but what?
    • probably as a flag to unbundle
  • (Approved) smart log
    • eliding / ellipses in graph
    • topological sorter
    • revset
    • new template
  • (Approved) templates
    • new, easy to discover templates needed
    • oneline, twoline, etc.
  • (Possibly) share extension
    • everything on by default
    • hg clone –share?
  • (Approved) new paths
    • needs to respect [auth] sections
    • path aliases
    • Use [uri] section for naming?
  • (Approved) remote bookmarks
    • built on top of journarl and new paths
    • can be used to propagate deletion (using a merge-like operation)
    • change hg update to hg update -B?
  • (Possibly) terse status
    • needs discussion on the mailing list after 3.4 code freeze
  • (Approved) hg config -l 'section.name = value'
    • after much, much, much discussion mpm could agree to “doing the dumbest thing possible” -> appending to the end of the .hgrc file
