   $ cd repo
   $ hg serve

It should display an URL like http://localhost:8000. Open it in a browser and click on the graph link on the left. You may find more powerful tools in TortoiseHG, hgviewer or similar packages.

(On command line you can try:

  $ hg log -G

but by default it won't help much with the topology. With recent mercurial you could try:

  $ hg log -G -r 'branchpoint() or heads(all()) or roots(all())'

which gives you a textual summary of the graph branches.)
