Thanks, I run a small experiment

hg init
echo "First" > test.org
hg add test.org
hg commit  -m "First"
echo "Second" >> test.org
hg commit  -m "Second"
echo "Third" >> test.org
hg commit  -m "Third"
echo "Forth" >> test.org
hg commit  -m "Forth"
mv test.org testnew.org
hg addremove
hg commit  -m "Renamed file test.org to testnew.org"
hg log -f testnew.org


Then in emacs (and I am not sure whether the following is partially the
fault of emacs vc), I run vc-annotate, which in turn runs hg annotate,
indeed all 4 lines were correctly identified, however the command

,----
| vc-annotate-prev-revision 
| 
| (vc-annotate-prev-revision PREFIX)
| Visit the annotation of the revision previous to this one.
`----

Failed. Since I move files a lot into subdirectories and sometimes
rename them, I would be interested in such a feature. Maybe some emacs
user, Arne?, can say something?

Thanks
