            Bug ID: 5035
           Summary: log --hidden could show precursors/successors
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: feature
          Priority: wish
         Component: evolution
          Assignee: bugzilla at selenic.com
          Reporter: sphink at gmail.com

When diving into a problem where evolve is getting things wrong, I often want
to know the successors/precursors of hidden patches. It would be very nice if
log --hidden just showed them. Currently, I do lots of cut & paste hg log
--hidden -r 'successors(...)' etc.

I suppose it would be safer to only show successors, since that would only
affect the output of hidden changesets (which aren't strictly subject to
backwards-compatible formatting yet). Or you could just say that --hidden isn't
BC yet. (Or is it?)
