They will not. And what's the problem with that? If there's more changes in
the bitbucket clone after this merge, and someone tries to merge them again
later, mercurial will know what has already been merged.

Between your commit on your local clone and your push to the bitbucket repo,
they will also be different and that doesn't cause any problem.
SoC students do not have push access to the core repo either. There's a
public facing clone of it with their own changes. That doesn't cause any
issue either.
This is the very nature of a distributed VCS and something we should be
making use of. Of course it's nicer to make frequent merges rather than
a huge one after 2 years.
Anyway, I'll give Jacopo push access once I get his username and then
they can close the clone on bitbucket.
