I'm using Intellij Idea and unfortunately it doesn't support mercurial. I want to track rename task with mercurial completely similar to all Idea does with subversion. can anybody help me?

thanks lot

I don't know anything about IntelliJ, but I know something about the command line which I hope will help you.

You can use

hg addremove --similarity 90

on the command line to make Mercurial look at your files and search for renames. By setting the similarity parameter to a value less than 100, you tell Mercurial that is should treat almost-similar files as renames.

So if Foo.java has disappeared from the filesystem and Bar.java has appeared, then Mercurial will be able to figure out that Foo.java was simply renamed to Bar.java while updating the class name from Foo to Bar.

Use hg status -C to double-check the file status after running addremove.
