> As long as the general class of functionality is present, that's fine. https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/HisteditExtension History editing plugin for Mercurial, heavily inspired by git rebase --interactive. (shipped with hg since v2.3 (2012-08) it just needs to be enabled) Mercurial also has a concept called "phases" where hg tracks which changes have already be published to assist avoiding conflicts with shared repos. https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/Phases One other feature of hg that I personally like is the ability to push and pull from a clone via ssh. So I can use a development virtual machine with less security requiemtns from a regular machine. (If you know how to do this easily with git, I'd appreciate a hint to a tutorial as personal mail. It will be possible somehow.) Regular machine, (more rights) (R) ----> dev machine (D) There is no direct way from D to get to R. I ssh onto D, work there, then commit and pull it back to R from R. Inspect code on R and push in into the public repo. So if someone subverts D, they can only change code (which gets inspected on R), but they do not get R's priviledges.
