Ah, sure, and sorry about the long delay (darn school). To explain further,
I am asking about not showing (by default, overridable by an option -B)
heads of bookmarks:
[D0]---[D1]---[D2]----[D3]---[D4]
\
[B0]---[B1]---[B2]
where D is the main line of work, and 'B' is a bookmark. So, calling 'heads'
$ hg heads
D4
$ hg heads -B
D4
B2
In the same way, this would apply to 'merge' as well:
$ hg merge
abort: there is nothing to merge
$ hg merge B
<merges B2 and D4>
Am I way off on this behavior? I'm willing to submit patches, if need be,
and the community is open to this, just let me know either way.
