- Merging of branch (in Mercurial) doesn't mean it will become closed|disappeared. Used ranch is permanent part of Mercurial changeset forever
- Merge will not close branch, just remove HEAD of merged branch
- Because Mercurial's history is DAG, you can always return (
hg up CS-ID
) to any entry (changeset) in it and start working from this point, adding new child changeset on commit - For named branches, branchname is CS-ID of HEAD of latest (topologically) changeset of this branch
For LTB "Cleanup" I used hg up Cleanup
after each merge it to Default branch
