Im trying to interpret a mercurial repository and more specific its Graph. Most of what happened is clear to me, but there are two places, where I need some help understanding what happened.
Problem A: "mq"
o changeset: 93:b0aa6f2898b6
| parent: 91:88cca7c8f32e
| user: test <test@gmail.com>
| date: Tue Feb 19 13:36:00 2019 +0100
| summary: some message
|
| o changeset: 92:0aff2e92ec57
|/ user: test <test@gmail.com>
| date: Tue Feb 12 18:10:10 2019 +0100
| summary: [mq]: 2019-02-12_18-10-04_r91+.diff
|
o changeset: 91:88cca7c8f32e
| user: test <test@gmail.com>
| date: Tue Feb 12 18:09:49002019 +0100
| summary: some message
|
Question 1: What is the meaning of changeset 92. Is this comparable to a rewinded commit in git?
Question 2: What does mq mean in this context?
Problem B: Timestamp that does not match with parent!
o changeset: 62:143401518e68
| parent: 60:327ffdb4b8c3
| user: test <test@gmail.com>
| date: Fri Nov 16 21:19:00 2018 +0100
| summary: some message
|
| o changeset: 61:b4a37ff37688
|/ user: test <test@gmail.com>
| date: Fri Nov 16 16:00:00 2018 +0100
| summary: some message

Question 3: How do I have to interpret the timestamp of changeset 61? Should the timestamp of 61 be between the timestamps of changeset 60 and 62?
Thanks for all suggestions!
Problem A: "mq"
A1+A2: I suppose, it is commit (hg commit --mq), related to using Mercurial Queues extension, which is separate long topic of queues|patches etc. And now you try to understand repo, which used MQ, with your Mercurial without MQ extension enabled (which is tricky task)
No, mq and 0aff2e92ec57 hasn't any relation with git's rewinded commit and serve another role (I'm too lazy to repeat tutorial here)
Problem B: Timestamp that does not match with parent!
A3: As @ecm already noted, timestamps of changesets have near-zero value, because it can be changed|redefined
