Description legec 2011-08-05 13:24:16 UTC
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.0.1 (Build 201107282000)
Operating System = Linux version 2.6.38-10-generic running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_22
Runtime = OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 20.0-b11

The various dialogs of the Mercurial interface (commit, history, ...) do not seem to take into account branches :
- you can't choose the branch on which you commit,
- you can't use branches to filter history
etc...

sorry, what? I though you always commit into the active branch. So what exactly do you need branch for in the commit?
> - you can't use branches to filter history
true

Anyway, branch support is implemented in 7.1

regarding the commit & branch. If you meant something like switching to a branch, than it's should be possible already now, you may use Mercurial > Update and update to the branch head. In 7.1 this is much easier

Indeed, bug 168855 covers my request.

Actually, I meant "being able to open a new branch with a commit".
I also use TortoiseHg GUI interface, and the commit dialog allows you to create a new branch (forked from the current branch) and commit on that branch.

Okay, I'll look there.
