Well, it turns out that your question probably should have been on the
mercurial list, but let me see if I can answer you.

Can you describe a scenario where this is desired behaviour?

Usual configuration is to have something like
- stable_repo: A, B
- unstable_repo: A, B, F1, F2
where F1 and F2 are new files with interesting features
bugfixes would be made to stable_repo and then pulled to unstable_repo

The situation you describe could be handled with the mq extension and
branches on the patch repository - but since you are new to version control
systems I think you should try something simpler to start with.

A good starting point is
