I have imported our SVN repository into Mercurial and now we have entries for the same user that don't match.

e,g, for me I have

Sam Mackrill smackrill SMackrill

is there are way to merge these into one user?

+4  A: 

What tools do you use for importing? If it was hg convert or hgsubversion extension, then you can re-import your data providing an up-to-date authors file, that handles various names for the same person. See the --authors option of those Mercurial commands.

Andrey Vlasovskikh
The documentation for `hg convert` implies that you can "convert" your Mercurial repository to Mercurial while specifying a new username mapping file, thus avoiding reimporting from Subversion.
