Description Jesse Glick 2008-01-21 19:41:22 UTC

See issue #125013 for background. Since pulling and merging is a basic part of Hg workflow, needed whenever you want to
push and someone else has gotten there first, I suggest supporting the Fetch extension or its equivalent, either as

1. A menu item Fetch running 'hg fetch'. Safest, since the logic is a tested part of Hg itself.

2. A dialog displayed after pulling creates new local heads prompting you to merge. (If no new heads created, update.)

You don't actually need to modify ~/.hgrc, you just need to use

  hg --config extensions.fetch= fetch
