Hm, I am not sure what you mean by this. So far I am using named
branches for the emacs-matlab repository which sadly is under git, and I
have not faced any problems. If I have the time I'd like to give that
test a try.

Actually I am still bound to Ubuntu 16.04[1] which only ships 3.5 😨
I tried several times to install also 3.7 or 3.8 but it caused all sort
of problems.

To upgrade hg 5.2 should not be a problem but I had problems with 5.5
compiled for 3.5: pushing and pulling to local clones gave me some
errors.
Not sure who the culprit is.

Anyhow, right now I still with 5.2 for daily work and use 5.5 and the
branch-and-stuff topic only if I need to deal with matlab-emacs,
inconvenient but doable.

[1]  and don't want to take the risk to upgrade to say 20.04 before the
     academic course end in the first week of may (or maybe wait till
     the exams period is finished at the end of June.)
