Because communicating with hg over pipe is much faster than starting hg for each command. Also there are some other improvements and differences: - graph log is used for branch or root log - Conflict status for a file Files with unresolved merge conflicts have appropriate status in `vc-dir'. Also you can use `vc-find-conflicted-file' to find next file with unresolved merge conflict. Files with resolved merge conflicts have extra file info in `vc-dir'. - hg summary as `vc-dir' extra headers hg summary command gives useful information about commit, update and phase states. - Current branch is displayed on mode line. It's not customizable yet. - Amend and close branch commits While editing commit message you can toggle --amend and --close-branch flags. - Merge branch vc-hgcmd will ask for branch name to merge. - Default pull arguments You can customize default hg pull command arguments. By default it's --update. You can change it for particular pull by invoking `vc-pull' with prefix argument. - Branches and tags as revision completion table Instead of list of all revisions of file vc-hgcmd provides list of named branches and tags. It's very useful on `vc-retrieve-tag'. You can specify -C to run hg update with -C flag and discard all uncommitted changes. - Filenames in vc-annotate buffer is omitted They are mostly useless in annotate buffer. To find out right filename to annotate vc-hgcmd uses `status --rev-C file'. - `previous-revision' and `next-revision' respect files Keys `p' and `n' in annotation buffer works correctly. - Create tag vc-hgcmd creates tag on `vc-create-tag' If `vc-create-tag' is invoked with prefix argument then named branch will be created. - Predefined commit message While committing merge changes commit message will be set to 'merged ' if different branch was merged or to 'merged '. Additionally predefined commit message passed to custom function `vc-hgcmd-log-edit-message-function' so one can change it. For example, to include current task in commit message: (defun my/hg-commit-message (original-message) (if org-clock-current-task (concat org-clock-current-task " " original-message) original-message)) (custom-set-variables '(vc-hgcmd-log-edit-message-function 'my/hg-commit-message)) - Interactive command `vc-hgcmd-runcommand' that allow to run custom hg commands - It is possible to answer to hg questions, e.g. pick action during merge - Option to display shelves in `vc-dir' - View changes made by revision; diff to parents Additional bindings in `log-view-mode': - `c c' view change made by revision at point (-c option to hg diff command) - `c 1' view diff between revision at point and its first parent - `c 2' view diff between revision at point and its second parent `C c', `C 1' and `C 2' shows corresponding diffs for whole changeset. - View log for revset Command `vc-hgcmd-print-log-revset' allows to print log for revset, e.g. "branch(branch1) or branch(branch2)"
