check out a descendant commit

Update to a descendant commit of the current commit. When working with a stack of commits, you can use sl next to move up your stack with ease.

• Use the --newest flag to always pick the newest of multiple child commits. You can set amend.alwaysnewest to true in your global Sapling config file to make this the default.

• Use the --merge flag to bring along uncommitted changes to the destination commit.

• Use the --bookmark flag to move to the next commit with a bookmark.

• Use the --rebase flag to rebase any child commits that were left behind after amend, split, fold, or histedit.

Examples:

• Move 1 level up the stack:

sl next

• Move 2 levels up the stack:

sl next 2

• Move to the top of the stack:

sl next --top
