Reorder commits

hg convert --datesort

Try this first. However, in my case I saw no difference and moved on.

Lots of small pulls

That said, if you want to try you just need to use a series of hg pull -r REV commands into a new clone. Something like this:

hg init my_reordered_clone
cd my_reordered_clone
hg pull -r d84b1 ../un_reordered_clone
hg pull -r 6d269 ../un_reordered_clone
hg pull -r bb9e4 ../un_reordered_clone

If your workflow only merges branch heads, you can get the desired revision order by sorting revsets by date. This you can do with the following command:

hg log -r 'sort(0:tip, date)' --template '{rev}\n'

HistEdit

Or with interactive rebase AKA HistEdit extension by reordering the lines in the text file

View chronologically (no graph)

hg log -r 'sort(all(), -date)'

Sadly, no graph love
