Yes. Look for 'grafts' in the documentation. You'll have to create a
new repository containing only the most recent code first, and then
create the grafts-file in that repository and copy the object database
from the old repository into the new one.

The grafts solution will work like that, assuming you don't publish
your grafts-file.
