hg-remove: Remove files or directories from the staging area.

$ hg remove ${filename}

try on your machine

The command "hg remove ${filename}" is a Mercurial (hg) command used to remove a file from the version control system.

When run, the command "hg remove" instructs Mercurial to mark the specified file as removed in the repository. This means that the file will be removed from the next commit and subsequent revisions, effectively deleting it from the versioned project.

The "${filename}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the file you want to remove. You need to replace "${filename}" with the name of the file you want to remove from the repository.

For example, if you have a file named "example.txt" that you wish to remove from version control, the command would be:

hg remove example.txt

After running this command, the file "example.txt" will be marked for removal in the repository, and it will not be included in the next commit.
