[ANNOUNCE] git-remote-hg 0.2

Hi,

git-remote-hg is a bidirectional bridge between Git and Mercurial. It is production-ready, has been widely tested, and was previously part of git.git.

Junio C Hamano has retracted from his previous statements where he wanted these tools to become part of the Git core and distributed by default.

It is obviously production ready so it doesn't belong in contrib/ either.

Since there's no path forward, it has been split into a separate out-of-tree project.

This will hurt our users, but it's better than having dubious prospects of when and how these tools will be part of the core, if such a thing was even possible to begin with.

Changes from v1.9 upstream:

 * Add manpage
 * Fix regression that will become active in Git v2.0
 * Do not fail on invalid bookmarks
 * Skip multiple heads (hg has such a thing)
 * Ported tests from gitifyhg
 * Add support for Mercurial v3.0
 * Fixes for failed imports

If you use ArchLinux, you can use the package I wrote[1].

Enjoy :)
