<p>manage a stack of patches</p>
<div class="section" id="description">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#contents">Description</a></h1>
<p>This extension lets you work with a stack of patches in a Mercurial
repository. It manages two stacks of patches - all known patches, and
applied patches (subset of known patches).</p>
<p>Known patches are represented as patch files in the .hg/patches
directory. Applied patches are both patch files and changesets.</p>
<p>Common tasks (use <a class="reference external" href="hg.1.html#COMMAND"><tt class="docutils literal">hg help COMMAND</tt></a> for more details):</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
create new patch                          qnew
import existing patch                     qimport

print patch series                        qseries
print applied patches                     qapplied

add known patch to applied stack          qpush
remove patch from applied stack           qpop
refresh contents of top applied patch     qrefresh
</pre>
<p>By default, mq will automatically use git patches when required to
avoid losing file mode changes, copy records, binary files or empty
files creations or deletions. This behavior can be configured with:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
[mq]
git = auto/keep/yes/no
</pre>
<p>If set to 'keep', mq will obey the [diff] section configuration while
preserving existing git patches upon qrefresh. If set to 'yes' or
'no', mq will override the [diff] section and always generate git or
regular patches, possibly losing data in the second case.</p>
<p>It may be desirable for mq changesets to be kept in the secret phase (see
<a class="reference external" href="topic-phases.html"><tt class="docutils literal">hg help phases</tt></a>), which can be enabled with the following setting:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
[mq]
secret = True
</pre>
<p>You will by default be managing a patch queue named &quot;patches&quot;. You can
create other, independent patch queues with the <a class="reference external" href="hg-qqueue.html"><tt class="docutils literal">hg qqueue</tt></a> command.</p>
<p>If the working directory contains uncommitted files, qpush, qpop and
qgoto abort immediately. If -f/--force is used, the changes are
discarded. Setting:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
[mq]
keepchanges = True
</pre>
<p>make them behave as if --keep-changes were passed, and non-conflicting
local changes will be tolerated and preserved. If incompatible options
such as -f/--force or --exact are passed, this setting is ignored.</p>
<p>This extension used to provide a strip command. This command now lives
in the strip extension.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="commands">
<h1><a class="toc-backref" href="#contents">Commands</a></h1>
<div class="section" id="repository-creation">
<h2><a class="toc-backref" href="#contents">Repository creation</a></h2>
<div class="section" id="qclone">
<h3>qclone</h3>
<p>clone main and patch repository at same time:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
hg qclone [OPTION]... SOURCE [DEST]
</pre>
<p>If source is local, destination will have no patches applied. If
source is remote, this command can not check if patches are
applied in source, so cannot guarantee that patches are not
applied in destination. If you clone remote repository, be sure
before that it has no patches applied.</p>
<p>Source patch repository is looked for in &lt;src&gt;/.hg/patches by
default. Use -p &lt;url&gt; to change.</p>
<p>The patch directory must be a nested Mercurial repository, as

<p>qnew creates a new patch on top of the currently-applied patch (if
any). The patch will be initialized with any outstanding changes
in the working directory. You may also use -I/--include,
-X/--exclude, and/or a list of files after the patch name to add
only changes to matching files to the new patch, leaving the rest
as uncommitted modifications.</p>
<p>-u/--user and -d/--date can be used to set the (given) user and
date, respectively. -U/--currentuser and -D/--currentdate set user
to current user and date to current date.</p>
<p>-e/--edit, -m/--message or -l/--logfile set the patch header as
well as the commit message. If none is specified, the header is
empty and the commit message is '[mq]: PATCH'.</p>
<p>Use the -g/--git option to keep the patch in the git extended diff

<pre class="literal-block">
hg qqueue [OPTION] [QUEUE]

<p>Supports switching between different patch queues, as well as creating
new patch queues and deleting existing ones.</p>
<p>Omitting a queue name or specifying -l/--list will show you the registered
queues - by default the &quot;normal&quot; patches queue is registered. The currently
active queue will be marked with &quot;(active)&quot;. Specifying --active will print
only the name of the active queue.</p>
<p>To create a new queue, use -c/--create. The queue is automatically made
active, except in the case where there are applied patches from the
currently active queue in the repository. Then the queue will only be
created and switching will fail.</p>
<p>To delete an existing queue, use --delete. You cannot delete the currently
active queue.</p>

<h3>qselect</h3>
<p>set or print guarded patches to push:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
hg qselect [OPTION]... [GUARD]...
</pre>
<p>Use the <a class="reference external" href="hg-qguard.html"><tt class="docutils literal">hg qguard</tt></a> command to set or print guards on patch, then use
qselect to tell mq which guards to use. A patch will be pushed if
it has no guards or any positive guards match the currently
selected guard, but will not be pushed if any negative guards
match the current guard. For example:</p>
<pre class="literal-block">
qguard foo.patch -- -stable    (negative guard)
qguard bar.patch    +stable    (positive guard)
qselect stable
</pre>
<p>This activates the &quot;stable&quot; guard. mq will skip foo.patch (because
it has a negative match) but push bar.patch (because it has a
positive match).</p>
<p>With no arguments, prints the currently active guards.
With one argument, sets the active guard.</p>
<p>Use -n/--none to deactivate guards (no other arguments needed).
When no guards are active, patches with positive guards are
skipped and patches with negative guards are pushed.</p>
<p>qselect can change the guards on applied patches. It does not pop
guarded patches by default. Use --pop to pop back to the last
applied patch that is not guarded. Use --reapply (which implies
--pop) to push back to the current patch afterwards, but skip
guarded patches.</p>
<p>Use -s/--series to print a list of all guards in the series file
(no other arguments needed). Use -v for more information.</p>
<p>Returns 0 on success.</p>

<p>The patch is inserted into the series after the last applied

<p>The patch will have the same name as its source file unless you

<p>With -f/--force, an existing patch of the same name will be
overwritten.</p>
<p>An existing changeset may be placed under mq control with -r/--rev
(e.g. qimport --rev . -n patch will place the current revision
under mq control). With -g/--git, patches imported with --rev will
use the git diff format. See the diffs help topic for information
on why this is important for preserving rename/copy information

<p>To import a patch from standard input, pass - as the patch file.
