Forget a named branch?

Depends on what exactly you mean by "obsolete" and "forget". I
would do it this way:

$ hg update -C activebranch
$ HGMERGE=true hg merge oldbranch
$ hg revert -a -r activebranch
$ hg commit -m 'Discard oldbranch'

Then the output of "hg branches" however will still show
"oldbranch", but marked as (inactive).
