Challenges
- 1- First challenge is how to trim history of a repository.
- We have a Mercurial repository called A. We want to clone repo A and create a new repo called B.
- It's possible to use 'init' and create a new repo and just copy the files from repo A and add them.
- This way the revision number will reset. And we will start repo B from the tip of the repo A.
- The problem appears if we want to clone just the tip of the repo A and keep the same revision number of the 'tip'.
- Here are some links that we went through, but no success yet.
