import - Difference between a changeset and a patch? -
What is a change and a patch?
I was using HG today and I saw import order mention that it is used to import "the ordered set of patch."
What is the patch?
Changes usually refer to internal representation. Thus, hg unbundle
, which processes the mercurial-specific files, "implements one or more changegroup files." A change group is just a group of changes.
Patches are plain text in standard formats (like produced). Note that the command can be used to process these plain text files (separate from the modification control).
