<h1>Command Line Interface<a class="headerlink" href="#command-line-interface" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>hg-review provides a command line interface. Except for initializing the review
data, starting the web ui, and possibly some scripting, you&#8217;ll probably want to
use the <a class="reference external" href="webui.html"><em>web interface</em></a> for most tasks.</p>
<p>When you enable the hg-review extension Mercurial will gain a new command:
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">review</span></tt>. This command on its own will display review data for a changeset,
but it also has several subcommands detailed below.</p>
<p>You can always get help on a given topic right from the command line with
<tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hg</span> <span class="pre">help</span> <span class="pre">review</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hg</span> <span class="pre">help</span> <span class="pre">review-topic</span></tt>.</p>
<div class="section" id="review">
<span id="c-review"></span><h2><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">review</span></tt><a class="headerlink" href="#review" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>View code review data for a changeset. Usage:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>hg review [-r REV] [-U CONTEXT] [--quiet] [FILE]</pre>
</div>
<p>Diffs of all changed files will be shown with comments inline.</p>
<p>The line numbers printed are the ones that should be used to add line-level
comments.</p>
<p>Options:</p>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--unified</span> <span class="pre">VALUE</span></tt></dt>

<span id="c-init"></span><h2><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--init</span></tt><a class="headerlink" href="#init" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Initialize code review for a repository. Usage:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>hg review --init --remote-path PATH</pre>
</div>
<p>When run for the first time in a project, it will do two things:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Create a new repository to hold the review data at <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.hg/review/</span></tt>.</li>
<li>Create and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hg</span> <span class="pre">add</span></tt> a <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">.hgreview</span></tt> file in the current repository. You
will need to commit this file yourself with: <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hg</span> <span class="pre">commmit</span> <span class="pre">.hgreview</span> <span class="pre">-m</span>
<span class="pre">'initialize</span> <span class="pre">code</span> <span class="pre">review</span> <span class="pre">data'</span></tt></li>
</ul>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--remote-path</span></tt> option is required and specifies the path where the
canonical code review data for this project will live.  This is the path that
will be cloned when someone else runs <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">hg</span> <span class="pre">review</span> <span class="pre">--init</span></tt> on the project.</p>
<p>Options:</p>
<dl class="docutils">
<dt><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--remote-path</span> <span class="pre">VALUE</span></tt></dt>
<dd>The URL to the public code review data repository.</dd>

<span id="c-comment"></span><h2><tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--comment</span></tt><a class="headerlink" href="#comment" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Add a code review comment for a changeset. Usage:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>hg review --comment [-m MESSAGE] [--mdown] [-r REV] [-l LINES] [FILE]</pre>
</div>
<p>If no files are given the comment will be attached to the changeset as a whole.</p>
<p>If one or more files are given but no lines are given, the comment will be
attached to each file as a whole.</p>
<p>If a file is given and lines are given the comment will be attached to those
specific lines. Lines should be specified as a comma-separated list of line
numbers (as numbered in the output of &#8220;hg review&#8221;), such as <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">3</span></tt> or <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">2,3</span></tt>.</p>
<p>Options:</p>

<p>Add a code review signoff for a changeset. Usage:</p>
<div class="highlight-python"><pre>hg review --signoff [-m MESSAGE] [--mdown] [--yes | --no] [-r REV]</pre>
</div>
<p>The <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--yes</span></tt> and <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">--no</span></tt> options can be used to indicate whether you think the
changeset is &#8220;good&#8221; or &#8220;bad&#8221;.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s up to the collaborators of each individual project to decide exactly what
that means.  If neither option is given the signoff will be marked as
