Description Max Arnold 2010-03-25 17:28:17 UTC
Live ebuild for history editing plugin for Mercurial. Histedit heavily inspired by git rebase --interactive. It allows selecting (pick), combining (fold), rejecting (drop) or modifying (edit) already commited changesets.

We don't ship Mercurial extensions by agreement long time ago - there's too many of them and users can store them in their home directory easily.

Krzysztof: hmm, I didn't know about this. We do now ship hgsubversion and hg-git, for example, which are both hg extensions. While I agree we shouldn't package all extensions, I think it might make sense to decide this on a case-per-case basis.
