You are right, I didn't realize it. Wow, there really is eveything. I like it, because people who don't like the current sympy, that it is too big, can just pick any prior revision very easily.

I didn't realize there is a full history. If it wasn't, I would be for deleting the branch, but since there is, I am for leaving it as is. Is there a bug for reporting to Mercurial though?
