Hi,

Did you know that the MQ extension has a 'strip' command for removing
changesets from a repository? I've been using MQ for a while but somehow
overlooked this command until now.

BTW I really suggest taking a look at the MQ extension, as it helps a
lot in patching any source code, and it is also helpful for manipulating
the revision history. A good introduction can be found in the
"Unofficial hg book":

Furthermore, here is some more idea on how to use it for modifying the
revision history:

Best regards,
Alpar
