That's right. I had code to import only once, but it didn't work
correctly; we would need a way to have shared fast-import/export
marks, and I don't think it's even possible from Mercurial's API to
figure out which objects are shared and which specific, so I gave up
on that. Sharing the repository is the only thing we can do safely and
sanely.
