I have large MQ patch applied in Mercurial. What has happened is I have done qrefresh and included files in my patch that I do not want to include. Is there a way to remove the changes to these file from my patch with out manually editing it? In this case if I was just working without MQ, all I would have to do is hg revert.

A:
I think you can use make the patch the current patch (applied and at the top of the stack) and then hg forget and hg qrefresh.
And of course hg forget is just hg remove without requiring extra options to avoid file deletion.

The easiest way to do this is to do hg qrefresh with all the files except the one you want to remove - that'll take the changes out of the patch without discarding them.

A:
With the patch applied: hg qrefresh -X [list of files to take out of patch].
After completing that, type hg status to verify that the files are now marked as modified, and therefore not part of the patch any longer .
