List bug or feature branches that have not been modified since October 2011 and that have been merged into other branches since they were last modified:

<pre>

$ hg -q branches | \

    egrep '(bug_|feature_)' | \

    while read b; do \

      oldmerges=`hg log --template '{rev}\n' -r "children(last(branch('"$b"')) and date('<Oct 1 2011'))"`; \

      [ -n "$oldmerges" ] && echo $b ; \

    done

</pre>
