How can I do "hg shelf apply"?

I would like to copy some changes from my Mercurial shelf to my working directory, leaving an unchanged copy in the shelf.

Git would let me do that with git stash apply, however I can't see a way to get TortoiseHg to let me do the same.

Is there any way to retrieve to copy the changes from the shelf, rather than move them?

Solution

    1. unshelve command has option --keep (see hg help shelve)

    2. Shelve extension stores shelves in .hg/shelves. If you stored named shelf, you can copy file, named as shelf, before hg unshelve NAME
