Can't edit commit message by pressing m in 'crecord' interactive mode

[Peter Vitt]

Hi,

I want to use the old crecord mode for committing. This is now available
out of the box when

[ui]
interface = curses

is set in ~/.hgrc. Unfortunately, this is all documentation I found on
that topic.

I figured out that calling `hg ci -i` starts the interface formerly
available via `hg crecord`. The problem is: I can't edit the commit
message.

To be honest, when I close the interactive UI, I end up in my standard
editor to add a commit message. But with the old crecord I was able to
check some hunks, edit the commit message by pressing m, check some more
hunks, edit the message by pressing m again, ... Also the help screen
still shows that pressing m will open the commit message editor.
However, pressing m doesn't do anything.

Is this caused by call `hg ci -i` instead of some other command? If so,
what other command has to be called to be able to edit the commit
message throughout un-/checking hunks?

Thanks for your help.

Regards, Peter
