hg pull do not retreive changes

Question

I've been using hg for a few years with a BitBucket Repo . I use it to archive my development but also to synchronise between different computers (mainly my desktop and my main laptop). So far, no troubles.

But today, when I did an hg pull to get the latest version from the server, I got the response " no changes found ", when I can see the changes made yesterday on the server, and still no replicated on my files, locally.

I eventually got the latest version using hg graft -r the_latest_version , which solve my problem for now ... however this was easy to see as it was for a shell script with only a few files.

With projects with plenty of files, I might not spot the problem early enough. Any ideas on what went wrong and how to correct it ?

Cheers.

Answer 1

OK, the answer is: I just forgot I needed to perform hg update after hg pull !

Thanks to @planetmaker for pointing in the right direction !
