  So actually you are trying to do more in the gates than
we do.

Internally all peer reviews and inspections are done from
the engineer's child of the clone. Any revisions are done
by the responsible engineer in his child. The child is
then normalised (hg reci -f) to compact all changes into
one changeset before it is permissible to push your
changes back to the gate.

I'm out of my area of expertise here - we need a slick solution where people can check out a tree, do work, and somehow get those changes stored for others to check out and work on them. Perhaps Git might be a better solution than mercurial for our development model? Not sure.
