On commit, we need to record that outside/ has the new nodeid that we got from the side we merged in. To do that, we need to remember what that nodeid is, from the time of `hg merge` to the time of `hg commit`. That probably means storing the nodeid in the dirstate (like git does), or maybe in the merge state. IIUC, dirstate does not contains files outside narrowspec. Maybe we need to do this in merge state?
