% help

hg record [OPTION]... [FILE]...

interactively select changes to commit

    If a list of files is omitted, all changes reported by "hg status" will be

    candidates for recording.

    See 'hg help dates' for a list of formats valid for -d/--date.

    You will be prompted for whether to record changes to each modified file,

    and for files with multiple changes, for each change to use. For each

    query, the following responses are possible:

      y - record this change

      n - skip this change

      s - skip remaining changes to this file

      f - record remaining changes to this file

      d - done, skip remaining changes and files

      a - record all changes to all remaining files

      q - quit, recording no changes

      ? - display help

options:

 -A --addremove     mark new/missing files as added/removed before committing

    --close-branch  mark a branch as closed, hiding it from the branch list

 -I --include       include names matching the given patterns

 -X --exclude       exclude names matching the given patterns

 -m --message       use <text> as commit message

 -l --logfile       read commit message from <file>

 -d --date          record datecode as commit date

 -u --user          record the specified user as committer

use "hg -v help record" to show global options
