While many may say that that is a half-baked solution, I actually like it. Mercurial and Git are pretty similar in their concept (if not in how the data is actually stored). Note that with git fast-export and hg fast-import, it should be relatively simple to convert from one data format to the other, even incrementally. And for the other direction, you could use hg fast-export from the fast-export.git repository (I am working on a better one at the moment, too, so that incremental fast-export would be possible, too).
