I like the way git displays its log(like in the man pages format). Is there any way I could customize mercurial to display its log(or glog) in a similar format?

    I’m guessing that by ‘man pages format’ you mean allowing you to scroll backwards and forwards in the output. You can accomplish the same thing in mercurial using the pager extension. It can be accomplished by adding the following to your .hgrc:

    [pager]
    pager = LESS='FSRX' less
    [extensions]
    pager =
    

    the FSRX arguments to less let it show any colored output you might have hg log showing.
