Mercurial subdirectory diff support

["Geoffrey A. Washburn" <washburn acm org>]

Hi,

I had been working on a project that kept in a subversion repository and I would frequently use "meld ." to curate my changes relative to the current directory.  Since then the project has migrated to Mercurial.  However, if I invoke "meld ." inside the Mercurial repository, meld will always start looking for changes from the root of the repository.  This wouldn't be so much of a problem if the repository wasn't huge and meld didn't waste several minutes scanning directories and files that are completely unrelated to my portion of the project.  

Ideally we will at some point split the repository, but in the meantime is there anything I can adjust in meld to get the same behavior I had with Subversion? Alternately, is this a feature that could be considered for a future release?

Thanks!
