Chris@497 4 <h2>I just deleted a file using the system file manager &ndash; then remembered I hadn't told the version control tool about it &ndash; what now?</h2>
Chris@497 5
Chris@498 6 <p>Any files that the version control system thinks should be there, but
Chris@498 7 that can't be found in your working copy are shown as <b>&ldquo;Missing&rdquo;</b>
Chris@498 8 under &ldquo;My work&rdquo;. All you need to do is:</p>
Chris@497 9
Chris@497 10 <p><b>1. Find your file in the &ldquo;Missing&rdquo; list and select it</b></p>
Chris@497 11
Chris@497 12 <p><b>2. Click Remove in the toolbar on the left of the window</b></p>
Chris@497 13
Chris@497 14 <p>This tells Mercurial that you haven't merely lost the file, but that
Chris@497 15 you intended to remove it. The next time you commit, it will be
Chris@497 16 removed from tracking in version control.</p>
