I'm sorry, but I didn't switch anything to darcs-2 yet, so I cannot
really say anything useful wrt "converting multiple branches".
Tailor is able to migrate a darcs-1 history to an equivalent darcs-2
repository[*]. I can imagine migrating the various branches to their
darcs-2 equivalents: if you start all the migration from a common,
empty darcs-2 repository, I think that you should be able to exchange
patches between the resulting repositories without problems.
I'm willing to help if needed, let me know.
hth,
ciao, lele.
