That's exactly what I'm talking about doing, except that the files
live on a backup disk which has all my other backups on it,
transported with the same mechanism as the rest of my backups.
Mercurial data is only a small part of the backup. Like all
database-like things, it needs something more than a simple disk copy
for a clean backup.
