Of course, if you have machine-specific settings in there, this won't be ideal. When managing files that are shared across machines, I keep machine-specific settings wrapped in an if test that checks for the existance of a '.hostname. file in '~'. Whatever works :).

It makes life a lot easier using MQ.

(Assuming you want to use MQ; multiple clone-branches seems to be serving you well) If you are using a new-ish mercurial, ‘hg pull –rebase’ *with* an MQ series applied will do a 3-way merge of your entire MQ patch series to tip, rebasing the series, rather than using patch(1).
