hg import [OPTION]... PATCH...
aliases: patch
import an ordered set of patches
Import a list of patches and commit them individually (unless --no-commit
is specified).
If there are outstanding changes in the working directory, import will
abort unless given the -f/--force flag.
You can import a patch straight from a mail message. Even patches as
attachments work (to use the body part, it must have type text/plain or
text/x-patch). From and Subject headers of email message are used as
default committer and commit message. All text/plain body parts before
first diff are added to commit message.
If the imported patch was generated by hg export, user and description
from patch override values from message headers and body. Values given on
command line with -m/--message and -u/--user override these.
If --exact is specified, import will set the working directory to the
parent of each patch before applying it, and will abort if the resulting
changeset has a different ID than the one recorded in the patch. This may
happen due to character set problems or other deficiencies in the text
patch format.
With -s/--similarity, hg will attempt to discover renames and copies in
the patch in the same way as 'addremove'.
To read a patch from standard input, use "-" as the patch name. If a URL
is specified, the patch will be downloaded from it. See 'hg help dates'
for a list of formats valid for -d/--date.
