We are using Mercurial and TortoiseHg at work and I always see + sign after my working directory revision number and Google doesn't tell me anything about it. Is there any one who can explain this?
Here is a snapshot of what I am talking about:

Google tells me it means you have uncommitted local changes in your repository.

If you run hg id it will also append the + suffix. THG seems to inherited the notation from there – StayOnTarget Oct 25 '17 at 11:24
