Hello,
I unfortunately have to work on a hg repository.
For reasons that all git users understand I still want to use git.
So I'm wondering if others git users faced the same problem and if so how they did workaround it ?
I found hg2git which could have solve my issue but it seems pretty old and no more maintained.
Thanks

You did not say from where you have it, so I would never know if you mean the same as I do.
I use the hg2git from http://repo.or.cz/w/fast-export.git and it works pretty well, most of the time.
Ciao, Dscho

I used the version hosted by github somehow:
git://github.com/vitaly/hg2git.git

Ok I missed this one.
Since you may have the same needs as mine, I'm asking another question: once you have finished your work in your git repo, how do you reintegrate them into the hg repo ? do you use patches or something else ?

Ah, I do not need to do that... But yes, I would use patches (there must be a git-am lookalike in Hg). Or maybe their fast-import equivalent I heard rumors of.

Maybe just learn mercurial, and submit patches for any features that you desperately miss? I doubt your employer will want you faffing around with hg2git etc just because of one or two minor missing features.
