Find the latest merge point of two branches

Question

Having two branches, how can I find the latest revision(s) where the two branches were merged? Is there a standard Mercurial command to do that?

This is the same as ques

Answer 1

You can rewrite this query to:

• The closest single changeset that is an ancestor changeset of the tip of both branches

Let's assume you have two branches, identified by R1 and R2, be it the name of the branches or the revision number or hash of a changeset in each, or whatnot.

Then you can find the changeset you're looking for as:

hg log --rev "ancestor(R1,R2)"
