distance to tag

Hi,

I just (re)discovered templates and revsets, nice stuff.

How do I get the number of revisions between a given revision X and
another given tag/revision Y (along the longest or shortest path)? I
know there's latesttagdistance but it's not quite what I'm after.

I guess something like...
hg log -r X:Y --template "{node|short}" | wc -l

...would work. But is there a built-in function? I'm mainly on windows,
no wc there.


Thanks!

Johannes
