HG Convert Extension

Hello,

I'm utilizing the hg convert extension and from my understanding using filemap ensures that both the necessary files/folders and history of the removed files/folder is excluded from the newly created converted repo.  As of now I don't see way to access the history in the new repo of the old files (which is what I want) and also when comparing the files sizes of the old repo, new repo and the removed files, the entire content of the old files appears to be removed.  When reviewing the actual documentation: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ConvertExtension I didn't see any information that explicitly stated anything regarding the removed files history.
Can you provide feedback on if I'm on the right path with the assumption that the history of the old files is indeed removed from the converted repo?

Thank you Mercurial Team :)!
