Help: annotate

hg annotate [-r REV] [-f] [-a] [-u] [-d] [-n] [-c] [-l] FILE...

aliases: blame

show changeset information by line for each file

    List changes in files, showing the revision id responsible for each line

    This command is useful for discovering when a change was made and by whom.

    Without the -a/--text option, annotate will avoid processing files it
    detects as binary. With -a, annotate will annotate the file anyway,
    although the results will probably be neither useful nor desirable.

    Returns 0 on success.

options:

 -r --rev REV             annotate the specified revision
    --no-follow           don't follow copies and renames
 -a --text                treat all files as text
 -u --user                list the author (long with -v)
 -f --file                list the filename
 -d --date                list the date (short with -q)
 -n --number              list the revision number (default)
 -c --changeset           list the changeset
 -l --line-number         show line number at the first appearance
 -w --ignore-all-space    ignore white space when comparing lines
 -b --ignore-space-change ignore changes in the amount of white space
 -B --ignore-blank-lines  ignore changes whose lines are all blank
 -I --include PATTERN [+] include names matching the given patterns
 -X --exclude PATTERN [+] exclude names matching the given patterns
