I don't think you can *officially* have two workspaces automatically reflect 
each other.  There will always be a pull/merge series of steps there if you 
use pure Mercurial-isms.

What you want is two different workspaces to share the same .hg directory.  
You could try *not* cloning, but symlinking the .hg directory (and any 
related .hg* files):

	# Working dir 1 is project1:
	cp -pvr project1 project2
	cd project2
	rm -rf .hg*
	ln -s ../project1/.hg .hg

That might get you to where you want to be.
