How to use the Eclipse Mercurial plugin to create a patch?

Question

I am new to Mercurial and Eclipse Mercurial Plugin.

The fact is that I made changes to one file and committed. I have two versions of this file, and I need to make a patch / diff file between the first and second versions.

Any tips on how I can achieve this with the Mercurial / Eclipse Mercurial Plugin?

King regards

I do not think you can through the Eclipse GUI. You can, of course, export the patch for an uncommitted file or files (Team → Export Patch).

You will need to use the command line (hg log -p) for the fix that requires the patch.
