Well, we already basically have this in

sage: hg_sage.import_patch?

but it would be worth improving the documentation here (another big
project).  I don't know whether we want global functions for this or
not.

Another problem is you can't really run doctests, but maybe it could
at include "#not tested" style examples.  Another thing to add to my
list.
