hg files [OPTION]... [PATTERN]...

list tracked files

Print files under Mercurial control in the working directory or specified revision whose names match the given patterns (excluding removed files).

If no patterns are given to match, this command prints the names of all files under Mercurial control in the working directory.

Examples:

  • list all files under the current directory:
    hg files .
    
  • shows sizes and flags for current revision:
    hg files -vr .
    
  • list all files named README:
    hg files -I "**/README"
    
  • list all binary files:
    hg files "set:binary()"
    
  • find files containing a regular expression:
    hg files "set:grep('bob')"
    
  • search tracked file contents with xargs and grep:
    hg files -0 | xargs -0 grep foo
    

See 'hg help patterns' and 'hg help filesets' for more information on specifying file patterns.

Returns 0 if a match is found, 1 otherwise.
