Mercurial: Remove changeset from remote branch

Question

Is there a way to remove a from a remote changeset, or to remove an entire changeset? I accidentely pushed a .war file to a remote repo and I want to remove it.

Answer 1

I had a similar case where i want to remove a merged branch "A" changeset from "Dev" branch remotely using TortoiseHg:

1. Create branch AA from branch A's parent branch; its origin.
2. Merge A into AA (working directory) and make sure that option: "Discard all changes from the other revision" is checked.
3. Merge AA into Dev branch (with a commit message indicating that branch A changes were removed).

You'll see that branch A changes are no longer exist in Dev.
