hg qpop --help

[Stefan Reichör]

Hi!

I have some questions about the qpop command. The built-in help gives
the following text:

% hg qpop --help
hg qpop [-a] [-n NAME] [-f] [PATCH | INDEX]

pop the current patch off the stack

options:

 -a --all    pop all patches
 -n --name   queue name to pop
 -f --force  forget any local changes


* --name
  Which queue name? Is the default .hg/patches? Can I specify a
  different one here?

  So I tried the following:
   
  % hg qpop -n lala
  using patch queue: /home/srei/work/hg/w2/.hg/lala
  abort: no patches applied

  How can I create such a patch queue? I think "hg qinit" should
  support the -n parameter also!

* PATCH | INDEX
  PATCH is the name of the patch. But why is there also an index?
  This disallows numerical patch names.


Stefan.
