Converting a Repository, Starting at a Specific Revision

[Jensen, Aaron]

We want to split part of our large repository (143,760 changesets, 5GB+ in size) into its own repository. Here's our filemap:

    include "Module1"
    rename "Module1" "."

The part we are splitting off, the Module1 directory, came into existence around changeset 90,000. Is there a way I can tell Mercurial to start converting at a specific revision? I'd like the convert to go a little faster and avoid waiting for it to checking 90,000 changesets which I know it won't need to convert.

I found the Convert extensions's talk page<http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ConvertExtension/Talk>, which I think says I can, but it doesn't include any examples and I don't understand the solution it proposes.
