Re: hg pull, hg update

The distinction between "hg pull && hg update" and "hg pull --update" [1]
is something that I find very confusing in 'hg'. So, in order to never
use "hg pull" alone, I'm using this script in my $PATH:

================================== hg ==================================
#!/bin/sh
# "hg pull" without --update is always a mistake.
HG=/usr/bin/hg
if test $# = 1 -a "x$1" = xpull; then 
  exec ${HG} pull --update
else
  exec ${HG} "$@"
fi
========================================================================

Hope this helps.
