The first answer out of Sean's mouth whenever something goes wrong with Mecurial is shelve/attic, why am I not surprised.
Now I ignore the answer because I actually have no uncommitted changes and don't want to shelve or attic anything.
Now I wait for next knee-jerk response from Mecurial lovers/haters. Knowing again it is likely unhelpful.
