Managing source code with Mercurial (developerWorks)

[Development] Posted Apr 20, 2011 12:57 UTC (Wed) by corbet

developerWorks has posted an introduction to the Mercurial distributed version control system. "Mercurial's revert, backout, and rollback commands make it easy to return to previous versions of specific files or previous sets of committed changes. Git provides a single built-in revert command with its typical rocket-scientist-only syntax."
