Push changes to the Mercurial upstream (Push)

From the main menu, choose VCS | Mercurial | Push.

The Push Commits dialog opens showing all Mercurial repositories (for multi-repository projects) and listing all commits made in the current branch in each repository since the last push.

If you have a project that uses multiple repositories that are not controlled synchronously, only the current repository is selected by default. For details on how to enable synchronous repositories control refer to Version Control Settings: Mercurial.

If necessary, you can modify the path to the remote repository by clicking it. The label turns into a text field where you can type the new path or invoke completion by pressing Ctrl+Space.

If there are no remotes in the repository, the Define remote link appears. Click this link and specify the remote name and URL in the dialog that opens.

If you want to preview changes before pushing them, select the required commit. The right-hand pane shows the changes included in the selected commit. You can use the toolbar buttons to examine the commit details.

note

If the author of a commit is different from the current user, this commit is marked with an asterisk.

If you want to push active bookmarks with your commits (they are not sent to the remote repositories by default), select the Export Active Bookmarks option.

Click the Push button when ready and select which operation you want to perform from the drop-down menu: push or push --force.

note

These choice options are only available if the current branch is not listed in the Protected branches field (see Version Control Settings: Git), otherwise, you can only perform the push operation.
