Version Control Blog

Lightning talk from Bryan O’Sullivan, aired at EuroPython 2006.

This talk presents Mercurial Queue (mq), an extension to the Mercurial … all » Version Control System (VCS). Mq is used to manage a series of patches in the same way that quilt does. The main difference is its complete integration with the VCS software, so that you can manipulate the patches as changeset objects. Mq adheres to the Mercurial philosophy: it is simple to use and blazingly fast. It can manage hundreds of patches applied to a 20,000 file repository.
