Sure. The other concern is people with as-yet unsubmitted code on  
their own computers. One will no longer be able to pull/push. (Does  
the current upgrade try and do that?)

Maybe I could schedule doing it sometime when you're sleeping (does  
that ever happen? :-) 'cause it can't be done in parallel to merging  
very well.

Certainly.

It requires a hacked version of hg I have on my computer, and not the  
kind of patch that would ever get merged upstream (without cleanup).  
I just asked the Mercurial guy who answered my original question if  
the hashes changed (again) in 1.0, but I got the impression last time  
that they have been sable for a while (just not as long as Sage has  
been around).
