TortoiseHG: cannot partially commit a merge

Question

I tried to merge two heads in Mercurial. After merging, I didn't commit and did some more changes. Then I tried to commit and got the following message:

abort: cannot partially commit a merge (do not specify files or patterns)

I'm using TortoiseHG as visual shell, and Beyond Compare for comparing and merging. And I'm relatively new to all of them.

What should I do to finish commit successfully?

Answer 1

I think you have aliases in hgrc file. Try to remove [alias] section and commit again.
