I see lots of heads, but that never prevented an update before. How do I tell which two heads are key to this case? For completeness, here's the output of hg heads in my 2.5 repository. I only see one labelled "2.5". What is the other head to which you referred? changeset: 68827:3114f26d5d54 tag: tip user: Victor Stinner <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> date: Tue Mar 22 10:46:35 2011 +0100 summary: Issue #11630, issue #3080: Fix refleak introduced by ef2b6305d395 changeset: 68804:f316e6d6271a branch: 2.7 parent: 68801:6b2edc385ffe parent: 68803:b99c94261225 user: Martin v.

This would take your change and Sjoerd> graft if on top of the head from the server. Looking here at the Common Cases section: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/RebaseProject I can see how I have now apparently got this situation: C1 --> C2 --> S1 \ \ --> ... Cn (where S1 is my local change and C? are the central changesets) Rebase will do this, right? C1 --> C2 --> ... --> Cn --> S1 Am I going to have to rebase then every time I re-pull that repository and incorporate new upstream changes? Wouldn't I rather want the chain of revisions to look like this after the rebase step? C1 --> C2 --> S1 --> ... --> Cn Skip _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
