{Making changes} I want to remove, rename, or copy a file To remove or rename a file, you first need to find it in the list of files under "My work". This area normally shows only those files that you have changed since your last commit: if it isn't one of those, toggle the "Show all files" option at the bottom of the window. To *remove* a file from version control so that changes to it are no longer tracked: *1. Select the file you want to remove in the list of files under "My work".* *2. Click Remove in the toolbar on the left of the window* The file will be moved to the *"Removed"* list. This tells Mercurial to stop tracking the file the next time you commit. The file itself is not removed from the disc: you will need to do that using your system file manager afterwards. * Note: the equivalent Mercurial command for this is *hg remove -Af* To *rename* or *copy* a file: *1. Select the file you want to remove in the list of files under "My work".* *2. Right-click and select "Rename..." or "Copy..." on the context menu* *3. Enter a new name for the file.* * Note: the equivalent Mercurial commands are *hg rename* and *hg copy*
