Grouping commits before pushing

[Luiz Guilherme]

Thank you very much Gour, that's pretty much what I was looking for. I 
played around with it the last days, and now I plan to use this daily.

For those who still don't know how to use it:

Just use hg qnew PatchName and hg qrefresh PatchName to start a new 
patch, and save the changes on the patch, respectively, until you're 
ready to commit and push. Then let's suppose your mq queue looks like this:

PatchN
....
Patch3
Patch2
Patch1

Now just do the following sequence of commands:
hg qgoto Patch1  #applies only Patch1
hg qfold Patch2 Patch3 ... PatchN  #join all the listed patches into patch1
hg qrefresh -e  #the option -e to qrefresh enables you to edit the 
commit mesage before qfinish.
hg qfinish # commit it as a regular mercurial changeset.

I just didn't figure out yet if there is a more direct way to qfold a 
list of patches. If I have 10 patches before commiting, it would be 
annoying to list all of them, does anybody know how? Anyways, if you 
have any suggestion please give it to us.
