If you do an hg pull
and then an hg update
(or an hg merge
), is there a way to back this out? Ie: revert your repository to the state prior to doing the hg pull
?
I believe you can do hg update -r n
where you would specify the changeset prior to the pull as n
. Though I'm guessing this will still leave the changesets in your repository but this isn't really what we want. ??
hg strip
will remove revisions from a repository. Like all powerful commands, its dangerous, so be careful.

If you catch your mistake immediately (or reasonably soon), you can just use hg strip REV to roll back the latest (one or more) changes. ...
