Help: add

hg add [OPTION]... [FILE]...

add the specified files on the next commit

Schedule files to be version controlled and added to the repository.

The files will be added to the repository at the next commit. To undo an add before that, see 'hg forget'.

If no names are given, add all files to the repository (except files matching ".hgignore").

Examples:

  • New (unknown) files are added automatically by 'hg add':
    $ ls
    foo.c
    $ hg status
    ? foo.c
    $ hg add
    adding foo.c
    $ hg status
    A foo.c
    
  • Specific files to be added can be specified:
    $ ls
    bar.c  foo.c
    $ hg status
    ? bar.c
    ? foo.c
    $ hg add bar.c
    $ hg status
    A bar.c
    ? foo.c
    

Returns 0 if all files are successfully added.
