hg-pull: Specify a specific revision changeset to pull up to.
$ hg pull --rev ${revision}
try on your machine

This command is using the Mercurial (hg) version control system to pull changes from a repository. Here is the breakdown of the command:

  • hg pull: This is the main command to fetch changes from a remote repository and update it in the local repository.

  • --rev ${revision}: This is an option used to specify a specific revision or changeset that you want to fetch from the remote repository. ${revision} is a placeholder for the actual revision number or identifier that you would provide.

By using this command, you are instructing Mercurial to pull changes up to the specific revision you mentioned, updating the local repository with those changes from the remote repository.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
