Mercurial: Hg Status - Do you know how to report file name only (no path) on Windows OS?

Question

When I run Hg status I get a listing something like the following:

M proj\Content\Site.css
M proj\Views\DoThing\DoThing.cshtml
M proj\Views\MainThing\MainThing.cshtml
M proj\Views\GetThing\GetThing.cshtml
M proj\Views\ViewThing\Index.cshtml
M proj\Views\Home\Index.cshtml
M proj\Views\Shared\_Layout.cshtml
M proj\js\extra.js

Does anyone know how to run hg status and easily get just the filnames to be listed -- sans the path info? Something like:

  M Site.css
  M DoThing.cshtml
  M MainThing.cshtml
  M GetThing.cshtml
  M Index.cshtml
  M Index.cshtml
  M _Layout.cshtml
  M extra.js

Or, if you have some quick way of piping this through some command-line thing like findstr or something which will easily and quickly strip off the path, let me know.

I need the final format shown. Anyone? Anyone?

Answer 1

If you have Mercurial 3.5 installed (ie the most recent version as of the time of this writing), you can use the experimental status templates. Use hg help status -v to see if there's a --template option. If so, use:

hg status -T '{status} {path|basename}\n{if(copy, "  {copy}\n")}'

This is the normal status output, except that {path} has been replaced with {path|basename} .

Answer 2

If you can use sed

Extract the file path and replace with file name

hg status | sed "s/ .*\\\(.*\)\.\(.*\)/ \1.\2/
