Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
Give ConfigParser the capability to set as well as read options, and to write a representation of the configuration state in .ini format that can be read back in by a future read() call. Thus this class is now a back end for .ini editors as well as parsers. This patch is complete and tested, but exposes a bug in the ConfigParser implementation which I have not yet fixed. Because case information is discarded during parsing, the output of write() has its case smashed. I wrote this for a SourceForge interface script called forgetool. Documentation for the new entry points included.
