:Is it really neccessary to support both git and mercurial? Even if I 
:voted for git, I'd be just fine with using mercurial (except that I'd 
:probably miss gitk). It's in any case a gross improvement over the 
:current situation. Maybe those who voted for mercurial think the same 
:way. Of course if it's easy to setup this cross-commit facility, then 
:just do it, otherwise I don't see a huge benefit in it.

    I consider the cost of supporting both to be minimal.  I think it
    is well worth doing.  I don't think creating a cross-commit mirror
    for HEAD between Git and Mercurial would be difficult.  It might
    take more time to create a cross-commit mirror for the release
    branches as well but that is something that can be addressed once
    the basic functionality is in place.
