initial merging for cvs conversion

[brianharris]

This is a sort of feature enhancement request, though I'm not sure if this is
already possible- hence this post.

I'm converting a CVS repository to Mercurial.  AFAIK you have to convert one
CVS module at a time.  My issue is about the end result of merging all the
converted modules' repositories together.

When I merge one at a time, the repo I merge _from_ gets all of its
changesetIDs incremented by the highest id in the repo I merge _to_; this is
expected but undesirable in this situation.  What I really want is for the
changesetIDs to overlap based on the date, so that the various auditing
tools that display changes in order of changesetID make more sense in the
final converted repo.

So what I'd like to know is (a) if this multi-merge ability is currently
possible, (b) if not, if it's theoretically possible given hg design, (c) if
so, in what module you think this feature belongs.

Thanks,
Brian
