Help: resolve
hg resolve [OPTION]... [FILE]...
redo merges or set/view the merge status of files
Merges with unresolved conflicts are often the result of non-interactive merging using the "internal:merge" configuration setting, or a command-line merge tool like "diff3". The resolve command is used to manage the files involved in a merge, after "hg merge" has been run, and before "hg commit" is run (i.e. the working directory must have two parents). See "hg help merge-tools" for information on configuring merge tools.
The resolve command can be used in the following ways:
- "hg resolve [--tool TOOL] FILE...": attempt to re-merge the specified files, discarding any previous merge attempts. Re-merging is not performed for files already marked as resolved. Use "--all/-a" to select all unresolved files. "--tool" can be used to specify the merge tool used for the given files. It overrides the HGMERGE environment variable and your configuration files. Previous file contents are saved with a ".orig" suffix.
- "hg resolve -m [FILE]": mark a file as having been resolved (e.g. after having manually fixed-up the files). The default is to mark all unresolved files.
- "hg resolve -u [FILE]...": mark a file as unresolved. The default is to mark all resolved files.
- "hg resolve -l": list files which had or still have conflicts. In the printed list, "U" = unresolved and "R" = resolved.
Note that Mercurial will not let you commit files with unresolved merge conflicts. You must use "hg resolve -m ..." before you can commit after a conflicting merge.
Returns 0 on success, 1 if any files fail a resolve attempt.
