Stacking Code

There may have been an easier way to do this, I don't know. I needed to remove all unversioned files from my Mercurial repository because there was something in there that was screwing up my build. I had started some big changes which I had given up on and reverted it all, but something somewhere wasn't getting compiled properly, even after a clean.

I found this post on how to do it at the command line.

hg st -nu | xargs rm

That's deleting unknown files, I needed to delete ignored files. And I needed it to work on Windows. Here's my PowerShell version.

hg status -in | foreach { del $_ }

After which the build worked. Check out hg help status for all the options.
