Description
The ccollab addhgdiffs command uploads differences between arbitrary versions of files in Mercurial. The differences are generated using the native hg diff command of Mercurial.
Command Line Syntax
ccollab [global-options] addhgdiffs [--upload-comment <value>] <review> [<user-diff-arg> [<user-diff-arg> ...]]

Remarks
Do not use diff arguments that affect the diff output such as -U unified. The Collaborator command-line client will automatically select an output format that ensures you will get all the data you need on the server.
Mercurial treats Microsoft Office documents (.doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx) and PDF files as binary files. Thus, the native hg diff command is not able to generate meaningful difference for these types of files. Because of this the ccollab addhgdiffs command is also unable to upload differences between Microsoft Office documents (.doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx) and PDF files.
Examples
To upload all changes between revisions 4 and 8:
ccollab addhgdiffs new -r 4 -r 8
