hg identify [-nibtB] [-r REV] [SOURCE]

aliases: id

identify the working copy or specified revision

    Print a summary identifying the repository state at REV using one or two
    parent hash identifiers, followed by a "+" if the working directory has
    uncommitted changes, the branch name (if not default), a list of tags, and
    a list of bookmarks.

    When REV is not given, print a summary of the current state of the
    repository.

    Specifying a path to a repository root or Mercurial bundle will cause
    lookup to operate on that repository/bundle.

    Examples:

    - generate a build identifier for the working directory:

        hg id --id > build-id.dat

    - find the revision corresponding to a tag:

        hg id -n -r 1.3

    - check the most recent revision of a remote repository:

        hg id -r tip http://selenic.com/hg/

    Returns 0 if successful.
