If you do, you can use hg bisect to isolate the specific revision that  
caused the crash.

Suppose, for the sake of demonstration, that the crash starts between  
1.1 and 1.1.1. You start by marking these as good and bad:

        hg bisect -b growl-1.1.1
        hg bisect -g growl-1.1

bisect will then update to some revision within this range (probably  
the one in the middle—hence “bisection”). You'll test it and give  
it a thumbs-up or thumbs-down:

        hg bisect -b
        hg bisect -g

Eventually, you'll have narrowed it down to the revision that  
introduced the problem.

I haven't had an opportunity to use this yet, but it looks awesome. ☺
