A while back, I tried to write an extension to mercurial that would export a
hg repo using the git protocol. One side-effect was that it converted the
entire repository to a git repo with many loose objects.

It "worked" (I never finished it enough) on a small repo in a bidirectional way.

I'll try to dig up the code, and put it up somewhere...
