Is there a command to move a patch between patch queues?

Question

I realize patch queues have a pretty simple implementation, and you can move stuff manually, but is there a command to move a patch between two queues?

two queues on the same repo? or between the queues of two repos? — Edward, Apr 03 '13 at 14:27

To manually do this assuming you have two patch queues "A" and "B" and want to move a patch call "MyPatch" from "A" to "B":

Open .hg/patches-A directory in repo root
Copy MyPatch file to .hg/patches-B directory
Open .hg/patches-A/series in text editor and delete "MyPatch" line
Open .hg/patches-B/series in text editor and add "MyPatch" line

The series file within each patch queue directory contains the names of all patch files within that patch queue.

This is a good candidate for automation via either contributing to the mq extension or creating your own extension or shell script.

No, there isn't; you'll have to write an alias for yourself.
