Given a local 'clone' of this branch, say in ~/work/emacs/trunk a user can get the latest development version with: cd ~/work/emacs/trunk hg pull --update ; or 'hg pull -u' This will perform both steps of (a) grabbing any changes of the remote tree that we don't have and stashing them in the local repository storage area, and (b) check out the latest version of the sources. If I do a local commit, does that change the "latest version" in my local repository? If I do a pull from my local repository to the main one, does that change the "latest version" in the shared repository?
