I've been doing some development on a branch and realized that before it could be complete something else need to be done first. I decided that I would branch my current branch and do the requiste changes in that branch then merge them back together and then merge my working branch into default. Basically I expected this:
| | + requiste work branch commit.
| |/
| + working branch commit
|/
+Default branch commit
and in the end what I expect to do is this:
+ Merge into defualt
|\
| + Merge requisite work into working branch
| | \
| | + requiste work branch commit.
| |/
| + working branch commit
|/
+Default branch commit
What I'm getting in both hg view
and hg serve
is this:
| + requiste work branch commit.
| |
| + working branch commit
|/
+Default branch commit
However, when I look at the commit log "requiste work branch commit" is marked as a part of a different branch.
Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug in hg view
and hg serve
? Anyone experienced this before?
