check out hg bundles --base. write a little script/extension that
keeps track of the last hash id it was run on, and then pass that to
--base, update the hashid,  and so on ....

we've done this for more than a year, and on one instance restored
from the incremental-backup-bundle store. works very well.

hope that helps.
