The major goal mentioned on
http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/wiki/index.cgi/SpecificHgrcForSetsOfRepos
was to
Do this extra configuration in such a way that new clones are
automatically configured correctly.
I don't see how symlinks in .hg/hgrc.d/* accomplish it, since they're
not cloned (unless I'm missing something). And what about filesystems
that don't have symlinks?
