processes

Let's say I have programmers and artists working on a project. The artists have some folders they care about:

/Doodles
/Images/Jpgs

And maybe the programmers have a folder like this:

/Code/View/Jpgs

What is the best process in Mercurial to keep the 2 Jpgs folders synced? I have used Vault, where you can have 2 or more files/folders linked in a repository so updating one updates another. Is there a way to do the same thing with Mercurial?
