By the way, there is a faster hg-to-git script called hg-fast-export
located inside the fast-export repository:

	git://repo.or.cz/fast-export.git

This uses git-fast-import and does a much faster conversion job.  It
also has some features to clean up author names (including pulling out
Signed-Off-By: information so it can be stuffed into the author field)
automatically.
