On the MultipleHeads wiki page it talks about how convenient it is to have all your base in one repo, so that an "update -C" can flip your working directory back and forth between various branches. It even gives an example of the mainline branch tip being version 3.0 and then going back to fix a bug in v1.0 (creating v1.1).
What it doesn't say is what you might do if you want that very same fix to appear in 2.0 and 3.0, etc.
I'm sure this has been discussed before on the list, most recently under the rubrick of cherry picking.
Would it be inappropriate to harvest some of that discussion and put it into the MultipleHead's page? Is there a better term I should use to search the archives?
Thanks,
