I read the hg tutorial but it only addresses very basic usage, so I
have 2 questions:

With the last hg repo you made (with named branches) what is the
proper/simple way to backport a bugfix (i.e., a changeset) from the
devel branch (called "eigen2" I think) to the stable branch (called
"2.0") ?

Another question: with hg is it possible to push many local commits as
a single one ? (in other word cluster many changesets into a single
one)
