Hi,

I would like to do some experimental work in a hg project. So I would like to create branch, commit to it. And if the experiment works, I can merge it back to main branch.

In git, I can do

$git branch experimental
$git checkout experimental

(edit file)
$ git commit -a
$ git checkout master

I read http://stevelosh.com/blog/2009/08/a-guide-to-branching-in-mercurial/, it said ' hg branch feature'. But what is next? I don't follow.

I appreciate if you can help.

Thank you.
