In bazaar, how do I change the default target of "bzr push"?

"bzr uncommit" equivalent in Mercurial?

Bazaar has a wonderful uncommit command, which simply undoes the last commit. Is there any equivalent in Mercurial? Edit: Bazaar's uncommit command does not modify files – it removes the last commit and associated data (useful, for example, when…
