Hi Gour,

it's about importing an ancient project where all source code files are updates 
and branches to the same file, except no version control software was used at 
that time, and I'd like to import it so no history rewriting would happen. 
Instead of doing an actual merge of A2 and B2 into A3 another file is inserted 
as fake merge as A3, at the same time B2 continues after merge with additional 
changes as B3.

If the history went like a1 -> a2 -> a4 -> a5, then inserting a3 would
mean rewriting the history and probably fossil does not allow it.


Sincerely,
Gour
