How to merge the histories of two files (like Wikipedia histmerge)?

Hi,

Sorry if this has been asked before. I did a quick search but didn't find anything.

This is the problem I am trying to solve. Somebody took a file from the repository and, in error, committed a new version of it as a new file. Let's call the original file A, and then new one B. Luckily, in this instance both A and B are still in the repository at the moment. There has been a further change to B since the incident.

Is there a way to merge the histories of the two files - so that we have only one file in there, whose revision history is the history of A followed by the history of B - just like what is frequently done by admins on Wikipedia to repair cut and paste moves?

Thanks
