New Evolve extension release: version 10.5.0

 2022-02-23

We released a new version of the evolve extension: 10.5.0.

This extension extends core features around history rewriting and draft changesets sharing.

As usual, the release is available on PyPI and upgrade is recommended.

This is a feature release. The most notable changes are: a new command: fixup, which is used to add changes from the working directory to an arbitrary revision. An issue with histedit not preserving topics in certain situations was also fixed, see issue6550. Evolve is now compatible with the upcoming Mercurial 6.1, which includes head computation code that is obsolescence-aware (adapted from the evolve extension). With an up-to-date client and server you should expect hg push to take much less time. Also compatibility with Mercurial 4.7 was dropped in this release.

Thanks to all the people involved:
