It works fine. Just tag into a new branch and delete the files you don't
want showing up there. Then do a sync-tree from the other branch. After
this you can star-merge between the trees without the deleted files
showing up in the public branch. When you merge in patches that touch
the "secret" files arch will leave directories around with the patches
it didn't manage to apply because the files were missing.
