subrepos

I made an attempt at using subrepos feature this evening and ran into  
issues.  The instructions at http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ 
subrepos highlight how to start from fresh, but I am trying to  
integrate 2 existing repos.

2 repos, docs and work.  I made work be a subrepo of docs via  
the .hgsub file
work=ssh://blah.com/repos/work

I clone docs, got a copy of work.  I then tried a test, make changes  
to a file in docs/work, commited and pushed.

I then went into an existing clone of work and tried to do a pull and  
saw none of the changes come in.  Could not make the other way work  
either.  I assume I did something wrong, but could not figure out why.

I have a feeling this is a little too vague.  Will try again and see  
if I can write down the steps and issues I ran into.  In the meantime  
someone might be able to tell me that this does not work?
