There appear to be multiple ways to convert hg repos to git, but no clear winner. It would be great if some one/people took on the task of evaluating the tools available out there by converting the cpython repo and seeing which one has the best results.
I said I'd look into this. I didn't. Shame on me.
Trying fast-export now :)
Update: The fast-export tool started at about 500 revs/sec but progressively slowed down. Now it's 90% done after churning for two hours, and each merge commit (of which there are many!) takes an entire second by itself. I don't feel like staying awake to see it finish. -- Nicolás
