The public version of the secret TODO list

General:

• Better documentation
• More regression tests
• less code duplication, more code in the right places
• export to git
• generate man page from doc strings

Core:

• add handling of rename on merge
• make unidiff generation use bdiff
• get various options from hgrc (e.g. history always -v, tip always -q)
• more complete set of hooks
• make showing removed files (in history etc.) faster.

Error Handling:

• fix clone error on disk full
• hgmerge error: merge should abort nicely and running it again should work

Commands:

• command to display file rev, changeset rev, changed, added, deleted, sha-1

• automatic pull fallback to old-http://

• hg pull default in a subdir doesn't work, if it is a relative path
• if everyone knows 'hg update -m': remove -t
• hg revert does not forget added files, it probably should.
• hg pull: select to pull a subset of the heads
• bug: "hg ci" removes files without requiring "hg rm"

• hg clone -r <rev> support, then clone can get a copy not include all the changeset.

• hg clone -r <rev>:<rev> support, so clone can get a small repository

Web:

• optionally only show merges (two parents)
• hgweb: deliver static files (e.g. favicon, stylesheets)
• hgweb personalization: timezone (display/change), display of features
• link children in hgweb
• allow verbose mode
• hide trivial parent (like in show_changeset)
• deal with binary files in file view
• deal with MIME types when showing files
• show how far repositories have diverged

Tools:

• integrated gui with history, commit, push/pull, etc.
• vi support
• integration with other IDEs

Portability:

• fix hg import on Windows
