As an alternative, there is a "matching" revset keyword that lets you
look for revisions that "match" one or more "characteristics" of a
given revision, such as its description (full or short), author, diff,
date, etc. If you use TortoiseHg you can access that feature by right
clicking on a given revision and selecting "Similar revisions..." on
the revision context menu.
