Hg: copy file without saving history (copy as new file)











up vote

favorite












I am making copy of existing files in a folder (selecting them in Pycharm, copying and pasting to another folder).



Also I tried to make a copy of files in Mac OS terminal



cp -R source_folder destination_folder


In both cases TortoiseHG show that the file has been copied from its source. How to make a copy of files without saving the history? I need the file to be created as a new one



It's possible if I manually create a new file and copying the content of source file to the new one. But it's much more complex way if you have plenty of files to copy

          Copying from terminal is ok, but I forgot to forget previously copied files. I clicked with right button on filename in TortoiseHG and chosen forget option. Then copied from terminal window as I made before
