Mercurial and named branches and hgweb

Read Original

This technical article examines the use of named branches in the Mercurial version control system. It explains how named branches work within a single repository, compares them to cloning, and details a major practical issue: the inability to selectively push changes and the failure of hgweb to properly display changes by branch, complicating release management.
