"mischen" translates back to "mix" in English, which seems rather
ill-suited to me.

Für die Deutsch-Sprechenden: Vielleicht wäre "vereinen" passend?

Hab' mich aber bisher nicht um Uebersetzungen gekümmert, also will ich
mich da lieber nicht einmischen :-). Ich benutze sowieso die meisten
Programme in Englisch. Ganz besonders Mercurial.
