Commit syntax

When running commands, a commit can be identified by its local ID (just the number, e.g. 3) or its server ID (prefixed with c/ or c, e.g. c/7 and c7). Both forms may optionally append a version with v<number>.

Examples​

  • 3 → local commit 3, latest version
  • 3v1 → local commit 3, version 1
  • c/7 → server commit 7, latest version
  • c/7v2 → server commit 7, version 2

Server syntax​

Some commands expect a server commit. For those, use the c/7 or c/7v2 syntax.

Aliases​

Shortcuts for referencing specific commits.

  • top → Last submitted commit.
    Example: tw rebase top rebase the current commit onto the last submitted commit.
  • down → Parent commit.
    Example: tw goto down, navigate to parent commit latest version.
  • up → One of the children of the current commit. Example: tw hide up, hides a child commit. Note: when there's more than one child, heuristics are used to determine which one is probably more relevant.
