Hi,
I've written up a new extension that adds an "hg send" command.
See http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/SendExtension for
details and a link to the code.
This is an extension on the hg bundle command. Basically, hg send will
call hg bundle to generate a bundle, then attach this to a single email.
The effect is that you can do this:
hg clone http://example.com/hg/foo
cd foo
# hack away, commit your changes
hg send
All you'll have to give hg send is the email address to send to.
(Optionally, you can give it a subject, body, etc.)
The effect is very similar to the nice darcs send command.
I hope to figure out a way to have hg send deduce a default email
address by looking at the remote repo and to support GPG-signed bundles.
Doing so would make this a very easy way for hg newbies to send bundles
to projects that choose to accept them.
