If it's in a repository, I can update with "hg rebase" and I have a new set
of patches, each with properly tracked commit messages.

If I store the patch as a patch instead of in a repository, it is much more
difficult to track and resolve conflicts.

Good sir, you must arrange for a phonautograph to record the tone of each
key press. Ship the scrolls by horse-drawn carriage to the distinguished
scribe Aleister Wadsworth for examination. Be sure to store in waxed hide
to prevent the mildew from starting. In no less than six months, he will
return to you a list of the keys that were pressed.
