Re: Using temporary branches and mergeinfo properties

I guess sometimes it will be the whole branch anyway, because you merge
up all bug fixes, and sometimes it will be only some revisions, because
some bug fixes are being handled more fundamentally, right?

No. Only if you merge parts of a revision: subdirectories or files in
changesets only. Avoid the need for that. When you fix bug A and bug B,
commit them separately so that you can merge the changes separately, but
still merge the whole changeset at once. Or if you do need to merge a
piece, keep track of it yourself and don't commit mergeinfo on the parts.
