Yes. I was going off some outdated information on the web that told me
the felipec/git-remote-hg had moved to mainline git. I now see that
has been undone.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on the project for support for pushing merge
commits. That missing feature is a show-stopper for me right now.
Since git-cinnabar is not doing a full hg clone under the hood, is
there a chance that it will support shallow clones? (even before the
native hg client has this feature...)

Yep, grabbing the latest version of git (2.5.0) solved the problem.
Sorry for the bother.
