Normally, Mercurial will abort if I have a dirty working copy when I try to import a patch:
$ hg import x.patch
abort: outstanding uncommitted changes
Is it possible to import it anyway?
With Mercurial 1.9, you can use
hg import --bypassto apply a patch without touching the working copy. The patch will be applied on the working copy parent revision by default. Use the--exactflag to apply the patch onto the changeset mentioned in the patch header instead.
