Yes it does. I use this facility to merge timesheet files mainatined on
separate hosts (home machine, travelling laptop) in my hgbox script.
The hgrc says:

  [merge-patterns]
  timesheets-cameron/2* = merge-dumb
  dailylog-cameron/2*/[A-Z]* = merge-dumb

so it is easy to specify a particular tool to merge particular files.
