The phases style started as a copy of the default style at af7f31678578, but
we didn't have to copy it because the templater supports %include syntax.
This makes sure that the phases style have the same output as the default
except for the additional "phase:" row.
This is a copy of 942d64e0a1ee, but applied to the phases template,
which is itself almost a copy of the default template.
Perhaps we should rewrite these templates to use the %include syntax
afforded by config files. This change seems a bit too big for stable,
though.
There is a new style called phases style.
Usage::
hg log --style phases
Why do we need this new style - in what way is it different from or similar to
existing styles?
The new style is default + phases information. With the new phases feature the
users exhibited their desire for a new style that could help them.
Why do this need a new style - couldn't it be folded into an existing style?
The default style and the new one are about the same, the difference is the
phases tag. The users find both styles useful, this means that the both styles
must exist.
