merging unrelated branches

[roehnsch at informatik.hu-berlin.de]

How do I bring the revisions stored in one branch into another, more
general branch? Both branches aren't related, i.e. share no common
revisions.

To be more precise. Given a branch foo with some revisions and a branch
bar, with completely different content. I'd like to have the working dir
files of 'foo' in a foo subfolder of the branch 'bar'. Also, the revisions
connected to the foo branch should be available in 'bar'.

Is it even possible?

Thanks for any suggestions
Alexander
