(It does have a "push" command, but at least last time I looked, it was utterly broken; see also <https://github.com/dubiousjim/yagh/blob/master/Backends.md> for a discussion (not written by me!). I'd be happy to learn that has changed, though I just looked, and it still uses "hg convert", so I don't see how it possibly could work...

I have not tested push (I'm using git-hg to sync hg repo and develop
using git, no pushing back to hg, just sending patches).

According to git-hg README "Push supported added as well although it
is still experimental". You should report the "push" bugs to the
author(s) they may be able to fix them.
