hg fold [OPTION]... [-r] REV...
aliases: squash
fold multiple revisions into a single one
With --from, folds all the revisions linearly between the given revisions and the parent of the working directory.
With --exact, folds only the specified revisions while ignoring the parent of the working directory. In this case, the given revisions must form a linear unbroken chain.
Some examples:
- Fold the current revision with its parent:
hg fold --from .^
- Fold all draft revisions with working directory parent:
hg fold --from 'draft()'
See 'hg help phases' for more about draft revisions and 'hg help revsets' for more about the 'draft()' keyword
- Fold revisions between 3 and 6 with the working directory parent:
hg fold --from 3::6
- Fold revisions 3 and 4:
hg fold "3 + 4" --exact
- Only fold revisions linearly between foo and @:
hg fold foo::@ --exact
