Make hg log case insensitive?


We use hg log -u MyUser.

Is there a way to make this case insensitive? Ie: so hg will return all changesets for MyUser or myuser.


Solution

  • I don't think there's a way to make the option case insensitive, but you can specify multiple user on the command line :

    hg log -u MyUser -u myuser -u Myuser -u myUser
    

    I admit this is a little bit tedious, but you can create an alias if you have to type the command many times. Add this to your hgrc file for example :

    [alias]
    mylog = log -u MyUser -u myuser -u Myuser -u myUser
    

    You can now use hg mylog insteand of the entire expression.
