As alternative solution "patch groups" were proposed as a means to

and users who have pulled a patch group should be able to follow such
changes.
My impression is that the whole repository can be viewed as a patch
group that contains everything, so patch groups might be a
generalization of repositories. Adding and removing patch groups from a
working directory looks like switching branches in the same directory
but more flexible. (My impression is that patch groups can be combined
more flexibly than branches.)
Patch groups certainly seem like a natural solution to the problem I
describe here: http://pozorvlak.dreamwidth.org/174393.html - in which I
have a number of fairly orthogonal changes made to a codebase and want
every combination of those changes.
