\subsection{Managing tracked files}

error or system bug, it's often possible to reconstruct some or most
revisions from the uncorrupted sections of the revlog, both before and
after the corrupted section.  This would not be possible with a
delta-only storage model.

\section{Revision history, branching,
  and merging}

Every entry in a Mercurial revlog knows the identity of its immediate
ancestor revision, usually referred to as its \emph{parent}.  In fact,
a revision contains room for not one parent, but two.  Mercurial uses
a special hash, called the ``null ID'', to represent the idea ``there

what the parents of the dirstate are.

\subsection{What happens when you commit}

The dirstate stores parent information for more than just book-keeping
purposes.  Mercurial uses the parents of the dirstate as \emph{the
  parents of a new changeset} when you perform a commit.
