Yep.  There is a global --debug option, which you can prepend to *any*
Mercurial command.  For example, compare the output of the three
different "hg log" invocations below:

1. Without --verbose or --debug

# keramida at kobe:/home/keramida/hg/freebsd/head$ hg log -r tip
# changeset:   129167:41de292f1649
# tag:         tip
# user:        kensmith
# date:        Thu Feb 22 20:29:53 2007 +0000
# summary:     If floppies are used to boot the machine, the user lets the machine
#

2. With --verbose only.

3. With --debug only.
