Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
Avoid double negative in if_not_empty. Use of "not" and "until" in the same sentence makes it confusing. Moreover, use of "until" with something that doesn't describe an event or point in time is wrong.
