It's more or less just a way to run a command on all subrepos.
So
pulling in all subrepos is done like this.
hg onsub "hg pull -u"
I use it in the package smoketest to ge the latest versions off all
subrepos.
While this can't corrupt released packages, note that you may get
"unpublished" changes in the smoke test.
That is not a bug unless we decide it is. AFAICS, the smoke test will
get all "published" changes, so test coverage for released packages is
not impaired. Smoke testing the unpublished changes may or may not be
a service to developers, depending on whether they push only in
testable state or not. We'll have to ask people and decide whether
"push only things you want tested" is an acceptable restriction.
Probably most people are happy to push only testable commits.
