= Bare Update with Bookmarks =

'''Status: Discussed at London Sprint'''

/!\ This is a work in progress

Moving an active bookmark with 'hg up' is non-deterministic and will be changed. The proposed solution is to treat a bookmark as a head and stay at the current commit when a bookmark is active.

== Goal ==

To preserve the current behavior a new bookmark alias will be introduced: `hg update -B .`

That means there are three or so patches to achieve this:

 * introduce a `-B .` argument to `update`
 * add `-B` to current tests
 * make a bare update no longer move the bookmark
