Sorry, my most primitive question on hg update.

I dispatched the command sysupdate without -i option before,
then, I dont't know what files were changed.

How can I overwrite the locally modified file by the mercurial deposite
file?

9front's fqa says something like:

hg update -C --clean

Is this work in the above case?

i wouldnt go that drastic... rather, just figure out what has been
changed and then revert that manually, so you know what is going on.

# bind the .hg directory to root, so the hg commands will work
bind -ac /dist/plan9front /

# what has been changed
hg status -m

# check differences
hg diff

# revert specific file
hg revert somefile.c

# revert all files in current directory
hg revert .

So, I have to do it manually...

I tend to like automatic these days after brain went
damaged, sigh.
