Hi, devel.

Now, "--bookmarks" option for "hg incoming" and "hg outgoing" causes
comparison of bookmarks between local repository and other one.

And this shows messages using "changed" word like:

    - "searching for changed bookmarks"
    - "no changed bookmarks found"

But this comparison only compares set of bookmark names in each
repositories.

So, even if the bookmark pointing rev-A in local is "changed" to point
rev-B in other, it says "no changed bookmarks found".

I think that "--bookmarks" should:

    1. show messages like below,

      - "searching for newly added bookmarks"
      - "no newly added bookmarks found"

    2. examine also difference of bookmarked revisions, or

    3. show "newly added bookmarks" and "changed(or moved ?)
       bookmarks" separately

       to distinguish automatically pulled ones and others easily

What would you think about current "--bookmarsk" behavior and my
proposal ?
