In Mercurial, how do you examine a single changeset? hg log -l 5 will give me a summary of the newest 5 changesets, but how do I get a list of the files changed in one changeset? I don't want to do a diff.

Changed in comparison to what? I don't quite see how you want to do that without a diff. – Tim Pietzcker Mar 31 '10 at 06:06

I want a list of the files in the diff, but I don't want to see the diff. – hekevintran Mar 31 '10 at 06:30

Pass -v to log and it will print out additional information, including a list of files changed.
Example:
hg log -v -r<rev> | grep ^files

I was looking for the same thing and found the following command, which is more what I was looking for:
hg status --change <rev>

If you want to see how did the contents of the files were changed for a given revision you can use:
hg diff --change <rev>
If you want to see the diff between the current revision and the one you are interested in, you can use:
hg diff -r <rev>
