Basically everything sccs needs to be placed to 'previous' state.

I'm afraid that for Mercurial this might be bigger challenge, since hg
uses in addition to actual files and .i files (.i is similar to .s for
sccs) also some index files. We will need to understand all files in .hg
and decide which of them are about to be stored to the backup.

Or maybe backup whole .hg, excluding .i files which were not touched ?

Also how do we know which files we touched? Will wx for Mercurial also
have the 'active' file list?
