I agree with Aaron. 'hg bundle' is meant to be something that you can
transmit as a substitute for access to a branch. Which is what our
'thing' does as well. It just happens that we are also designing it to
be human reviewable. Which has the advantage that the thing you review
is also the thing you merge. Rather than looking at one thing, and
merging a different thing.
