Or even better: Keep it in separate commit notes (provided you can wait for the js/notes topic in pu to make it into a release). If you add the notes with GIT_NOTES_REF=refs/notes/hg_metadata, you will also keep them nicely out of the way of everybody else. (I'm using this approach when building a bidirectional CVS <-> Git helper on top of Barkalow's foreign-scm topic).
