I think you have several options to do that. For the particular pypy case,
maybe the simplest is to directly ask bitbucket for the changeset:
https://bitbucket.org/pypy/pypy/changeset/c55286db0781/raw/
this has the advantage that you don't need any library but just an http
request, but of course it works only for bitbucket repos.
Alternatively, if you install mercurial you can then "import
mercurial.commands" and use its public API from Python. Or as you said you can
just execute hg log and parse the output: in this case you might be interested
in the --template option, which allows you to format things exactly as you
want, e.g.:
$ hg log -r c55286db0781 --template '{author}\n{date|isodate}\n{desc}\n'
