Manpages

Best use hg help (or man hg on unix) of your locally installed Mercurial for up-to-date help information covering the version you have installed (see [:WhatsNew] for version information).

The man pages hg(1) and hgrc(5) are also available in html-format in the [http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/release/?M=D release tarballs] as doc/hg.1.html and doc/hgrc.5.html.

Original links to online-versions of the manpages (as of 2008-05-02 rather historic):
