hg bundle [-f] [-t TYPE] [-a] [-r REV]... [--base REV]... FILE [DEST]
create a changegroup file
Generate a compressed changegroup file collecting changesets not known to be in another repository.
If you omit the destination repository, then hg assumes the destination will have all the nodes you specify with --base parameters. To create a bundle containing all changesets, use -a/--all (or --base null).
You can change compression method with the -t/--type option. The available compression methods are: none, bzip2, and gzip (by default, bundles are compressed using bzip2).
The bundle file can then be transferred using conventional means and applied to another repository with the unbundle or pull command. This is useful when direct push and pull are not available or when exporting an entire repository is undesirable.
Applying bundles preserves all changeset contents including permissions, copy/rename information, and revision history.
Returns 0 on success, 1 if no changes found.
