git vs mercurial
# Discard local changes
git checkout -f (git co -f)
# This will change the current parent revision if you're not at a branch tip.
# The fact that it discards local changes is just a side effect.
hg update --clean (hg co -C)
# What you really want is the command *designed* to throw away changes: revert.
hg revert --all [--no-backup] (hg rev -a)
