It does, as long as you don't use certain extensions.

Cloning and not using quilted patch queues does man you can work along in your 
branch of code as needed.  Flush out a change, diff it w/ someone other 
revision/tip/repository and go to town.  Export the changes upstream and it is 
a bit easier, even push them.  I've just not taken the time to fully grok the 
way Bitbucket and a few others use mq.

Too much complexity triggers the trap.
