[core-workflow] Help needed: best way to convert hg repos to git?

[Matthias Bussonnier]

Hey,

I just saw the GitHub released a tool to import Mercurial repo:

https://github.com/blog/2110-migrate-your-code-with-the-github-importer

Thought it might be usefull for this thread.

I'm currently trying to import to see how it looks, have been stuck at
0% for a few minutes now.

Will be at there if import succeed.
