Rebasing hg-to-git.py on gfi will probably be a very good idea once gfi 
is in the tree.

But I wrote this since I had a need for it, and once my repositories 
converted to git I'm not sure I'll need it again :) So don't count too 
much on me to do this rebasing :)

But who knows, on a cold rainy day...
