Who cares? If you don't know somebody, does that mean such person doesn't exist?

No, we don't.

If you are always going to do Mercurial workflows, then what's the
point of using Git?

Wow, catastrophic. BTW. Any commit pushed will show in 'hg log' either
way. And who will run 'hg heads' if, according to you, the project has
stated that new heads should not be pushed? If no new heads are
pushed, 'hg heads' will never show anything interesting.

Is that the *HUGE* problem? Too many heads will show in the arcane 'hg heads'?

There are so many workflows and use cases you are completely ignoring.

Anyway, I'm not going to discuss with you any more, a configuration
option would work perfectly, and curiously you didn't comment on that.
It's quite clear that you are arguing for the sake of arguing, or at
least not looking for a solution.

Bye.
