Users can't remove their repositories; however, since it contained nothing
valuable, I've reset it.

Follow-up Comment #1, sr #110915 (project administration):

Hello, again.

I think I can transfer the existing repository to a new one using

$ hg bundle -a filename

and

$ cd ~/new-repo
$ hg init
$ hg unbundle filename

.  This repo I could then transfer to Savannah with

$ hg push.

The trouble is, I already have a dummy repository in place with a single
commit.  I don't want to hg unbundle onto this repo, since that would make my
commit revision numbers off by one from the numbers in my notes.

So, can I remove the existing repo at Savannah, and if so, how?  If not, would
you do this for me, please.

Thanks!

Hello!

Yesterday I created an hg repository for cc-mode, having committed a dummy
file for the purpose.

Now, when I point my existing repository's .hg/hgrc at
ssh://acm...@hg.savannah.nongnu.org/cc-mode and try

$ hg incoming

, I get the error message "abort: repository is unrelated".

How do I import the existing repository into Savannah?  I couldn't see any way
in the documentation (page UsingHg) to do this - this documentation envisages
initialising a new repository with a dummy file, something I did.

Incidentally, I think I want to discard that hg repo from yesterday before
importing the old repo, so that the commit version numbers will stay the
same.

Please tell me what I am missing, and how I should proceed.

Thanks!
