+Obsolescence markers make it possible to mark changesets that have been
+deleted or superset in a new version of the changeset.
+
+Unlike the previous way of handling such changes, by stripping the old
+changesets from the repository, obsolescence markers can be propagated
+between repositories. This allows for a safe and simple way of exchanging
+mutable history and altering it after the fact. Changeset phases are
+respected, such that only draft and secret changesets can be altered (see
+:hg:`hg phases` for details).
+
+Obsolescence is tracked using "obsolete markers", a piece of metadata
+tracking which changesets have been made obsolete, potential successors for
+a given changeset, the moment the changeset was marked as obsolete, and the
+user who performed the rewriting operation. The markers are stored
+separately from standard changeset data can be exchanged without any of the
+precursor changesets, preventing unnecessary exchange of obsolescence data.
+
+The complete set of obsolescence markers describes a history of changeset
+modifications that is orthogonal to the repository history of file
+modifications. This changeset history allows for detection and automatic
+resolution of edge cases arising from multiple users rewriting the same part
+of history concurrently.
+
+Current feature status
+======================
+
+This feature is still in development.  If you see this help, you have enable an
+extension that turned this feature on.
+
+Obsolescence markers will be exchanged between repositories that explicitly
+assert support for the obsolescence feature (this can currently only be done
+via an extension).""".strip()
