I'm getting my feet wet with the cpython sources and Mercurial. I'm a bit confused -- when I checkout a branch, eg. 3.3, and I do an 'hg log', why do I see log messages for other branches?

This is a classic hg question, you would get the answer by asking Mercurial for help: hg log --help :)

Basically, to restrict the log to a given branch, just use the -b option: hg log -b 3.3.
