Hello, Mercurial.

I'm using Mercurial 6.8.2.

I'm trying to clone a repository with lots of subrepositories.  The
command I tried was:

    $ hg clone ssh://h...@foss.heptapod.net/xemacs/xemacs-packages 
xemacs-packages

..  This started working, but it prompted me for my ssh passphrase for
EVERY damned subrepo in the repository.  There are over 130 of these, and
it is impractical to spend many hours typing in my passphrase 130 times,
so I aborted the cloning.

I tried adding the option -S (for "subrepo") to the above command, but
the clone command doesn't accept it.

How can I clone this repository such that I only need to enter my
passphrase once, or at a maximum a few times?

Thanks for the help!
