how to get back to pristine state ?

[shirish]

Once you have done -

Code: Select all

$ autoreconf -i 

and then

Code: Select all

$ ./configure --disable editor 

Is there a way to get back to the pristine state so that the generated files are no longer there and you can pull without thinking that some merge conflict or something may happen.

This only creates new files.

By default, new files are not committed when pushing, so you're not going to pull them unless someone explicitly committed them (should not happen) and there should be no merge conflict on that front.

(If they really bother you, there's some hg command that I can't remember that purges all uncommitted files... Somewhere...)

[shirish]

$ hg purge

had to make changes to .hgrc -

Code: Select all

┌─[shirish@debian] - [~] - [10078]
└─[$] cat .hgrc

purge    =

[progress]
delay = 1.5%

make clean should do the job as well

[shirish]

I did that, just was making doubly sure.

The actual command for hg purge is -

Code: Select all

$ hg purge --all
