merge - Merging two mercurcial repositories of the same project -

i have old mercurial repository project has changes before date, , have repository same project changes after date.

i want merge these 2 repositories history reflects first commit in latter repository kid of lastly commit in former repository.

is possible? or have merge both heads?

i looks wanting accomplish can done rebase, caveats.

i pull changes newer repo older repo. results in 2 heads since both repos have 'default' branch. in older repo folder, ran:

hg pull -f ../newer-repo

then have utilize hg phases create pulled changes malleable. normally, bad idea, since know developer on project, can safely.

hg phase -f -d -r 15 16 ...

finally, can rebase because history pulled in newer repo begins same state lastly changelist in old repo.

hg rebase -s 15 -d 14

i have single history , no conflicts. wont work everyone, in narrow circumstance, needed.

merge mercurial
