How to move files (to subfolder) without losing their history?
In my Mercurial repository (I mean the folder with the .hg in it) I have MyProject/ folder with all project files. Now I need to create src/ folder inside and move all files to it (from MyProject/ to MyProject/src/). How can I do it without losing all history?
hg mv
does do the right thing, but hg log does not list entries past the move unless you
give it the -f option. See this question for more info
Why 'hg mv' (mercurial) doesn't move a file's history by default?
After you do this, you likely want to add the -f option to hg log
to the hgrc file for the repo.
.hg/hgrc
[defaults]
log = -f
