M-1 C-x $ and magic happens!

As usual, it’s white magic: C-x $ will bring your code back.

hg clean

there's no equivalent to git clean, but

hg status -iu                          # to show
hg status -iun0 | xargs -r0 rm         # to destroy

removes all the ignored (i) and unversioned (u) files that may be lying around (including emacs backup files etc, may be better to do make clean)


and then

hg update -C -r xxxxx

restores the state of the parent (note just -C puts you to tip rather than to where you are)

Mercurial hg diff patch wiggle

remember diff is from 30652 to 30659 to make a patch that will turn 30652 into 30659

hg diff -r 30652 -r 30659 >~/patch
patch  -p1 <~/patch

if the patch fails to apply, the bits can be wiggled in like:

wiggle --replace mc/main/ncsi.c mc/main/ncsi.c.rej
wiggle --replace mc/main/pdma.c mc/main/pdma.c.rej

theoretically

wiggle -rp ~/patch

should do the whole thing, but it can't create files.
