Why refreshing my mq patch leaves modified files in the working directory?

What is unclear to me is why hg status returns the same added files after I have refreshed the MQ patch? Note, that these files do appear in the verbose output of hg qrefresh.

What am I supposed to do with it now?

Thanks.

Answer 1

The casing of nc and NC directories in the files that were left out is different between hg qrefresh -v output and hg st.

Try forgetting the files reported by hg st and add them with the proper casing.
