Mercurial: get active branches created by a given user

We have quite many branches in our repository, I wonder if there is a quick way to list out all active branches created by myself.

You get all children of any branch point, whether named branch or unnamed branch by means of using revlogs:

hg log -r"children(branchpoint())"

Additionally you want to throw in not closed() and want to restrict it to yourself as user via -u YOURNAME.

Throw in a bit of bash and you get a list of active branches which you contributed to by

hg log -u YOURNAME -r"children(branchpoint()) and not closed()" --template="{branch}: {rev}:{node|short}\n" | sort | uniq

I rather use --template="{branch}: {rev}:{node|short} {desc}\n" in order to better see also the revisions and first commit message - but you can just limit it to `{branch}\n'.

Also see hg help revset for (further) help on advanced log searches - it allows very well refined searches. You might do without bash's sort and unique by using them even more extensively.

EDIT: changed quotes from single to double
