Pruning dead branches

If you've got a dead [:Branch:branch] you'd like to eliminate from the list of [:Head:heads], you can do a 'no-op merge' to remove it: 

$ hg update -C tip # jump to one head
$ hg merge otherhead # merge in the other head
$ hg revert -a -r tip # undo all the changes from the merge
$ hg commit -m "eliminate other head" # create new tip identical to the old
