Uhm, but a tag isn't strictly needed, you can specify an hash as
start-revision... My "common-point" was an abstract concept: despite
of their different histories, there must clearly be a point in time
where the two repositories contains the same sources in the same
state. I'd try to find out the last patch already present in the new
repo, determine the *next* patch hash which I'd use as
start-revision...

But as said, I'm just letting my mouth chatting... I never had this
exact need: still, I think tailor should be up to the task.

ciao, lele.
