Remove mercurial message "obsolete feature not enabled but xxx markers found"

Question

For a short time I had the evolve extension enabled in our Mercurial repository. Then I disabled it.

Now I frequently see messages like:

obsolete feature not enabled but 184 markers found!

when various hg commands are run.

How can I get rid of this message? I gather there are "obsolecense markers" in the repository now, is it possible to remove them and/or silence these messages?

Answer 1

You just need to delete the obsstore:

$ rm .hg/store/obsstore

Note that if you do this the obsolete commits you've made will show up once again as either draft or public changes.
