View Mercurial Kit Changes Using the GUI Comparison Tool

Question

We use both Examdiff and Kdiff3 to view Mercurial changes.

Just add this to .hgrc :

 [extdiff] cmd.kdiff3 = cmd.examdiff = C:\Program Files\ExamDiff Pro\ExamDiff.exe 

And then you can enter hg examdiff or hg diff3 to see the full spread of all your changes.

I would like to do the same to see the "before and after" files for a given set of changes that has been verified by someone else.

I know that you can type hg log to see all the changes, and then hg log -vprXX to see the text diff, but this is too complicated for my eye-friendly GUI. Does anyone know how this is equivalent to GUI tools?

Answer 1

Can't use only the -c option for extdiff?

 hg kdiff3 -c XX 

or

 hg examdiff -c XX 

in your example?

-c - change made by revision

from the output of hg help extdiff .
