In Mercurial (hg), how do you see a list of files that will be pushed if an "hg push" is issued?

We can see all the changesets and the files involved using

hg outgoing -v

but the filenames are all scattered in the list of changesets.

Is there a way to just see a list of all the files that will go out if hg push is issued?

I use Torgoise Hg, which is a shell extension that has a "synchronize" view allowing you to see outgoing files before you push them. It's convenient for commits as well, and other things.

A simple hg out will also solve this. It will list all committed but yet to push checkins.

A somewhat under-appreciated feature: hg status can show information about changes in file status between arbitrary changesets. This can be used to get a list of files changed between revisions X and Y:

hg status --rev X:Y

In this case, we can use hg outgoing, to find the first outgoing changeset X and then do

hg status --rev X:

to see the files changes since revision X. You can combine this into a single line in your shell:

hg status --rev $(hg outgoing -q --template '{node}' -l 1):

I usually use

hg outgoing -v | grep files

It makes the listing shorter, but doesnt sort. But thus far I havent been in a situation where I want to push so much (and at the same time check the files) that its been a problem.

[Edit] To do what you want:

  • Use cut to remove the files: part
  • For changesets with more than one touched file, use tr to put them on separate lines
  • Finally sort the resulting output with sort

Like so:

hg outgoing -v |grep files: |cut -c 14- |tr ' ' '\n' |sort -u

You can put this in ~/outgoingfiles.sh or something to have it nice and ready.

First, create a file with this content:

changeset = "{files}"
file = "{file}\n"

Let's say you call it out-style.txt and put it in your home directory. Then you can give this command:

hg -q outgoing --style ~/out-style.txt | sort -u
